Course programme

Year 1

The course you study depends on how much Spanish you have studied before. If you have an SQA Higher or A-level in Spanish (grade A or B), you will take the Level-1 non-beginners' language and culture courses. This will build on your knowledge of Spanish and will consolidate your command of written and spoken language. You will study a range of topics that engage with current issues from Spain and Latin America.

If you are a beginner, provided that you have some previous successful language learning experience, you can take the Level-1 beginners' course, which will provide an intensive foundation in reading, writing and speaking Spanish.

As part of Hispanic Studies, you will take some Portuguese courses. You may take the beginners' Portuguese course at either Level-1 or 2.

Year 2

The first-year language and culture course leads to Spanish 2, which extends and develops your linguistic skills and builds your knowledge of Spanish culture through the study of critical concepts, such as gender and national identity. Students progressing from the first-year beginners' course normally study Spanish culture 1 alongside the Level-2 course.

You will also study other subjects in years 1 and 2: see Degrees in Arts, Life Sciences, Science and Social Sciences.

Year 3 (year abroad)

If you progress to Honours it is essential that you spend your third year abroad. You will also spend at least the last three months of the second semester of year 4 abroad. The two most common ways to take the year abroad are to work as a language assistant in Spain or Latin America on a placement arranged through the British Council, or to go as an Erasmus or other exchange student to a university in a Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking country.

Year 4 and 5

When you return from your year abroad, you will take both Spanish and Portuguese as core languages. You will tailor the remainder of the programme to meet your own particular interests, and you will be able to mix Spanish- and Portuguese-based topics.
