Spanish Education Major
Major Overview

Why Spanish education?
The Modern/Classical Languages Department cooperates with the Education Department by offering courses required for either Secondary Education in Spanish or a Spanish endorsement for Elementary Education. Please note: course work leading to teaching certification may be reconfigured for this area of study. Licensure requirements are subject to change; therefore, students considering teaching in this area should be in continuous contact with the chair of this program and the School of Education for a list of required courses.

Career Options
A majority of our graduates pursue classroom teaching in public or private middle or high schools; others go on to seek advanced degrees in special education, literacy, educational administration, curriculum and instruction, school counseling or school psychology.
