World Languages and Literatures - Spanish UNR Specialty Advising Guide

World Languages and Literatures - Spanish Language

The following USAC Specialty programs offer courses and internships targeted to the academic needs and interests of World Languages and Literatures for the Spanish Language. USAC offers sequential Spanish language courses grouped into language tracks, which provide Spanish learners with a structured and intensive learning experience. This model allows students to complete up to two years of Spanish in one semester. The Madrid and San Sebastián semester programs require all students to complete a full language track while the remainder of our Spanish language programs require students to complete 1-2 courses in the track unless otherwise noted.

Please visit program course pages for course descriptions and terms offered; and meet with your academic advisor to see how you can best fit study abroad into your University of Nevada, Reno degree program. Syllabi are available upon request at syllabus@usac.edu.
