    You spend the third year of your Spanish degree in Spain or in another Hispanic country. You have a range of options, which include studying at one of our partner universities, working as an English assistant in a school, or working for a company or organisation in a Spanish-speaking country.

    While you are away from Cardiff, you will be assigned to the Year Abroad coordinator, who will keep in touch with you and monitor your progress. You may even get a visit from one of your Spanish tutors who will be keen to find out how you are getting on.
    You will also have the opportunity to share your experience by entering the Year Abroad Photo Competition, which rewards one student on each of the language degree programmes (joint or single) in French, German, Italian and Spanish with a £50 prize.
