Spanish

The online minor in Spanish is designed to give students the opportunity to gain foreign language accreditation in conjunction with their chosen major program. Spanish as a second language will give distance students a competitive edge in any field that they choose to enter. The program will increase students’ understanding of Spanish and Latin American culture, civilization and literature. Program students must have completed SPAN 2020 through a main campus section, transfer credit or demonstration of equivalent proficiency through testing.
