Overview

The Spanish program at Houston Christian University states that both locally and internationally, Spanish language proficiency allows us to partner with multiple communities and communicate truth to them. In our courses, students at various levels learn to speak with confidence, read with comprehension and write in a professional manner. With a wide variety of courses, from those for the complete beginner to those for native speakers, everyone has the opportunity to deepen their appreciation for and fluency in the Spanish language.

Study Abroad

Studying abroad is an excellent way to improve your Spanish abilities. For a month each summer, HBU students from a variety of majors travel to Santiago de Compostela, Spain to study Spanish at the city’s university. They live with host families, go on excursions, experience the language in exciting new ways each day, and return with 6 credit hours of Spanish to apply toward their degree. We also have internships in the fields of medicine, business and church ministry to provide students with hands-on experience putting their Spanish to work.
