Hispanic Studies Minor

The Hispanic Studies minor consists of 6 courses at the 200 level or above including at least 2 courses at the 300 level. All minors are required to take at least one course in each of the following areas in consultation with their Advisor: linguistics/professional development, cultural studies, and literature. SPA 298 “Introduction to Literary and Cultural Analysis” is highly recommended before taking any 300 level course. One FYS or cross-listed course in English with a FLAC section in Spanish may count toward the minor. Study Away in a Spanish-speaking country for at least one semester is highly recommended. Students are expected to consult with their advisor to select courses and make plans to study abroad. One course taken abroad may count toward the minor after pre-approval and then final approval once the grades have been successfully transferred to Connecticut College. Honors Study in the Hispanic Studies department (completed in Spanish or English on relevant topics) counts as two courses toward the minor. All courses taken in Spanish, regardless of level, count toward Connecticut College’s World Languages and Cultures requirement.
