Why study Spanish?
Spanish majors study the language, cultures, and literatures of spanish-speaking countries throughout the world. The discipline is concerned with language as well as analysis. On a practical level, it facilitates international travel and communication. On a more abstract level, it points the way to a refined understanding of communication, writing, and culture.
Admission Requirements
Students already pursuing a degree in any college at UC can add the certificate to their program. Be sure to submit a declaration of the certificate program using the Declare an Undergraduate Certificate online form.
In addition, you must meet with the program director so that they are aware that you are pursuing the certificate and can advise you appropriately. Do this early enough to avoid delay in obtaining your certificate.
Students not currently pursuing a degree may declare the certificate after establishing non-matriculated status.
Students who have a talent for learning language is undoubtedly helpful for Spanish majors, but anyone with discipline and curiosity can succeed in the field.
