Spanish Minor

A total of 18 credits at the post SPN 102/SPN 106 level are required for the Spanish minor as follows:  

Intermediate Spanish: SPN 201 and SPN 202 (see note below). 

Content Courses: Students will take a minimum of two (2) content courses. The following courses are considered content courses in Hispanic literature, culture, and/or linguistics: SPN 317, SPN 325, SPN 326, SPN 327, SPN 328, SPN 329, SPN 331, SPN 332, SPN 363, SPN 364, SPN 381, SPN 389, SPN 391, SPN 392, SPN 399, SPN 426.  

Elective Spanish Courses for students who begin the minor at the 300 level: Students will take two (2) upper level Spanish courses of their choice. These may be language skills or content courses. 

Note: Students who place out of SPN 201 and SPN 202 by waiver exam or by having earned equivalent credits at another institution may begin taking Spanish courses at the 300 level. Neither the placement nor the waiver exams confer credit; furthermore, placing out of the intermediate level and into the advanced level does not constitute a waiver of the overall number of credits required; nevertheless, credit for the intermediate level earned at another institution will indeed count towards the minor. Students who feel sufficiently skilled in language to bypass SPN 303 and/or SPN 304 altogether may consult with program professors about waiving these requirements; however, a waiver of a language-skills course is not a waiver of the overall credit-number requirement. The student will still be required to take 18 credits at the post SPN 102/SPN 106 level regardless.
