Come join the Spanish Program at WSU and learn more about the culture!
The Spanish Program at WSU provides you with a proficiency-oriented
curriculum where students are encouraged to use Spanish from day one. We have courses on
culture, film, literature, and special purpose areas such as Spanish for Medical, Business,
Veterinary Science, Education, and/or Law Enforcement related professions. The program gives
you the opportunity to major or minor in Spanish. We encourage our students to pursue
international study opportunities in programs all over the world, and accept up to 12
transferred credits depending on the length of the study abroad stay.
We offer a Master’s program in Spanish, as well, with some Teaching
Assistantship openings every year. We have a semester-long exchange program at the graduate
level with the Universidad de las Américas in Puebla,
Mexico, with a substantial scholarship providing for all our student’s costs.
