By the end of your first year of studying Spanish, you will be able to function in a Spanish-speaking environment. You can achieve fluency in both spoken and written Spanish after four years. Emphasis is placed on the communication skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing, and on exposure to Spanish and Latin American cultures. Students majoring in Spanish at Acadia may spend a year of study at the University of La Rioja in Spain in a direct exchange programme or take their year abroad at various universities in Spain or Latin America.
