The minor in Spanish requires the completion of 18 credits, which may begin at the SP 101/102 level (Beginning Spanish), SP 103/104 (Advanced Beginners), SP 109 (Spanish for the Health Professions), SP 151/152 (Intermediate) or the 201/202 level.
For students placed into courses above this level (SP 201 and SP 202), the required 18 credits will be completed through more advanced coursework.
Focus on most challenging aspects of grammar such as imperfect/preterite or the use of the subjunctive and writing controlled compositions based on selections previously read and discussed.
Prerequisite: Take SP-152 or SP 211 or SP-212 or by placement
A continuation of the SP 201 course: the further study of more complex grammar, and formal writing.
Being of Italian decent, I always felt learning Spanish would be closest to my heritage, and also benefit my studies as an International Business major. I graduated from SHU in 2005 and began working immediately at GE Capital. Three years in I was relocated to California where they needed a Spanish speaker. Five years after that I landed a VP role in Miami, Spanish being a must. Had I not completed my minor in Spanish, I would not be where I am right now. It got me here and here is where I'm happy to be. ~Christina Mirafiore, '05
