The Department of Spanish Studies supports the missions of the university and the School of Arts and Letters offering academic excellence through the study of language, literature, and culture, and prepares the students to become proficient linguistically and culturally in a multicultural, multiethnic, and multilingual society and be able to communicate successfully.
