Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs by Department

The Department of International Languages & Global Studies strives to develop students' knowledge of the Spanish language and culture in a Christian environment. It provides a broad range of educational courses and programs that build the Spanish language competence and enhance the understanding of Spanish and Latin American literatures and cultures. The department not only helps students develop a global perspective by training them to use their Spanish language skills in a variety of fields, but also to develop critical understanding of world culture in its complexity and diversity, supporting and promoting Christ's appeal to this generation, “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.”
