Spanish
| Why should I choose the Spanish major? With nearly 20 million Spanish-speaking people in the United States (including a major Hispanic presence in Florida ), fluency in Spanish is becoming increasingly sought after by employers in a diverse array of fields. But in addition to the competitive advantage of learning a new and commercially-significant language, learning Spanish allows you to explore, understand, and appreciate the music, literature, film, history and traditions of Latin America—one of the most culturally vibrant and economically important regions in the world. What does the Spanish program at Flagler offer? The Spanish major emphasizes language skills and a familiarity with the literature of Spanish-speaking cultures. Students are encouraged to study abroad for a semester in a Spanish-speaking country to further enhance their language proficiency while they come to understand another culture. As a Spanish major from Flagler, you will graduate well-prepared for successful careers in government, private industry, non-profit organizations, law, domestic and foreign teaching opportunities, the Peace Corps, and any other profession where fluency in Spanish is an asset. |
