The Modern Languages program of the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures / Departement de langues, litteratures et cultures offers a variety of programs with a concentration in Spanish Language and Culture. Students with or without prior knowledge of the Spanish language will be placed at the appropriate level upon assessment of their proficiency by a program advisor.Language is studied both experientially (through classroom practice of sounds, intonation patterns, posture and gestures and situations typical of the target language) and theoretically (learning how to study language through, for example, grammatical analysis). Our Multi-Media Language Learning Lab and departmental mini-lab provide enhancement and support. Understanding of Spanish culture is acquired through courses on Spanish and Latin American history, modern life and classical and contemporary literature and cinema.Our programs include a core component of courses in comparative literature, general and applied linguistics and cultural studies to help contextualize Spanish language and culture.
