Be that as it may, through the years you get the hang of what works for you. You meet lots of numerous individuals, individuals you'll know for a long long time and some you'll never truly converse with again, however, you definitely discover your group

Course programme
The course you study in first year 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 Spanish language and Spanish culture 1. This will build on your knowledge of Spanish and will encourage you to develop fluency in spoken and written Spanish through a course that focuses on the skills needed for everyday communication. You will also study some of the cultures of Spain and Latin America through a variety of topics, texts and films.
If you are a beginner or near-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. If you perform well on this course, you can progress to second year and beyond.
Year 2The 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 further study of literatures, cultures and societies of the Spanish-speaking world. Students progressing from the first-year beginners' course normally study additional Level-1 cultural materials.
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, usually as a language assistant in Spain or Latin America on a placement arranged through the British Council, or as a student at a university in a Spanish-speaking country, which can include Spanish America.
We can provide support with arranging a placement with an exchange programme or other foreign placement of your choice.
Years 4 and 5When you return from your year abroad you will take Spanish as a core language, and select courses from a wide range of linguistic, literary, cultural and historical topics.
There are a wide range of options that allow you to focus either on the culture of a particular country (e.g. Spain, Mexico or Argentina) or on wider themes such as gender issues or legacies of dictatorships in Spain and Latin America.
