Spanish Program

At Minot State University students learn to communicate in Spanish as
they become acquainted with the culture and literature of the Hispanic
world. Students have ample opportunities to use their Spanish in situations
outside the classroom.
Spanish is becoming a dominant language in the United States and the
Hispanic market is very attractive to U.S.
investors. This means that there will be
ample career opportunities for students
who plan to use Spanish for teaching, or
for pursuing a Business career, At MSU
students can combine a degree in
Spanish with a BA in Criminal Justice
or any other field where the knowledge
of Spanish is beneficial. At Minot State
students can either receive a concentration, minor of major in Spanish. This
provides them with the flexibility to combine Spanish with the profession of
their choice.

Our students have studied in Spain and Latin America during the summer. They also have the option of studying abroad for the semester and receiving equivalent credit hours from Minot State University.
