Spanish, Associate of Arts Degree
The Spanish major helps develop advanced proficiency in Spanish and provides students with intercultural sophistication to function comfortably and effectively in a Spanish-speaking environment. This major covers several of the aspects of written (grammar, word usage) and spoken (pronunciation and conversational style) Spanish that students will need to work toward fluency. Proficiency in Spanish can open up careers in international trade and politics or in helping other language communities in your area to receive full access to services and opportunities. Jobs open to language degree holders involve either interpretation (the spoken word) or translation (written documents).
