Overview

Because of the range of courses we offer, the Spanish major can easily be tailored to fit the goals and interests of the student. Incoming freshmen must receive a language placement for languages with which they have prior experience to determine their beginning course level for that language.

In addition to opportunities to study abroad, Spanish majors are required to complete a semester abroad, as well as a capstone project, to augment the skills and knowledge they gain in the classroom. Additionally, opportunities for networking include membership in Sigma Delta Pi, the National Collegiate Hispanic Honor Society.

Beyond the Classroom

Washington and Jefferson College offers semester-long study abroad opportunities in Spanish-speaking countries including Costa Rica, Ecuador, Spain, and Uruguay, plus summer Magellan projects and study abroad in whichever country students choose. Travel opportunities are also available during Jay Term courses in January or May, and internships and service learning opportunities for students are available in Costa Rica, Chile, the Dominican Republic, Spain and Puerto Rico.
