Description

Centered on the language and culture courses offered in the Spanish program of the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures, this cognate is for students who place into Spanish 211 or higher in the 2nd language learner sequence. This cognate offers students intermediate to advanced linguistic skills and advanced cultural competencies. These skills and competencies facilitate communication within a Spanish-speaking environment and enable the student to interpret the cultural products of the Spanish-speaking world.
