The world鈥檚 second language, and yours too

Spanish is the second-most popular language in the world, spoken by more than 400 million people. Spanish language skills are particularly sought after in healthcare, international business, public service and education, and sales and hospitality, allowing you to communicate effectively with clients and partners, facilitate business development and negotiations, and serve diverse communities. Across these fields, Spanish language skills not only increase job opportunities but can also lead to higher salaries. Bilingual employees can earn between 5% to 20% more per hour than monolingual counterparts. Moreover, Spanish fluency demonstrates valuable qualities such as motivation, cultural awareness, and adaptability, which are highly prized by employers in various industries. Enhance these skills by participating in our study abroad programs in Costa Rica, Granada, Spain, Bueonos Aires and more.

The ability to use a foreign language and to employ knowledge about another culture is highly valued by the business and professional communities, and multilingualism and intercultural competence are essential credentials for leadership today in diverse fields. Our graduates choose a variety of career paths: some become teachers, translators or interpreters; others are employed in publishing, broadcasting, government, international travel, financial services or other areas of international business. Coupled with other expertise acquired in joint or double majors, Spanish majors have opportunities in international marketing, advertising and other communications industries. Some students enter careers with international organizations such as the United Nations, International Red Cross or the World Health Organization, while others go on to advanced degrees in preparation for work in international law, diplomacy and college teaching.
