Spanish - Benedictine University

Spanish from Benedictine University is a Campus Bachelor Language degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The faculty of the Spanish program firmly believes that, for the person who possesses the knowledge of another language and a sensitivity toward other cultures, the world will have fewer boundaries. The development of this knowledge and sensitivity toward other cultures, the world will have fewer boundaries. The development of this knowledge and sensitivity will stimulate students self growth and broaden their perspective, thus enabling them to become responsible citizens and leaders in the world community. We currently offer a major and a strong minor in Spanish. In addition, students can combine the Spanish major with other majors such as international business and economics, education, pre-law, pre-med, and social work. The faculty subscribes to the proficiency guidelines of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages and uses them as a basis for instruction. Courses in Spanish are designed to enable students to achieve the following goals: 1. Initiate and progressively develop communicative skills in listening, speaking, reading, writing and culture; 2. Help students recognize the close relationship between language and culture, enabling them to become culturally sensitive to non-English speaking peoples and societies; and 3. Broaden career opportunities and marketability in an increasingly interdependent world. View more details on Benedictine University .
