Program Details

Glendon’s Spanish and Latin American Cultures & Societies program delivers the theoretical, experiential, and applied learning opportunities that prepare students to become tomorrow’s leaders. Through degree programs and curricula purposefully designed for a contemporary society, our graduates are laying the foundation for a future-focused brand of Spanish cultural examination and production for the 21st century.

Carefully curated interdisciplinary courses in Spanish and Latin American language, literature, culture, and linguistics help students develop a comprehensive skillset that will enable their success from day one. As they delve into basic written and spoken Spanish fluency, major trends of Spanish and Latin American literature, and even advanced dissections of Spanish culture and civilizations, students also benefit from soft skills development in writing, critical thinking, and collaboration, as well as Glendon’s distinct dual English- and French-language focus – making our programs uniquely trilingual.

Both within the classroom and beyond our campus, our programs present experiential opportunities for students to take the extensive knowledge and skills they have developed and put them to the test within real-world projects. Partnerships with like-minded organizations and institutions around the world – such as York University’s EcoCampus in Costa Rica or postsecondary institutions in Mexico, Colombia, Spain, the Philippines, Panama, and Brazil – broaden students’ perspectives and enhance their learning outcomes through hands-on experience. And with a host of cultural activities and experiences available throughout each academic year—including lectures, film screenings, conferences, and direct collaborations with native Spanish speakers—students can fully immerse themselves in their study of Spanish language and culture.

The possibilities are endless for students upon graduation. They can flourish in the professional field of their choosing—including journalism, translation, international business, international development, community-based work, or creative and applied arts—or they can bolster their academic excellence by pursuing advanced education and research opportunities.
