Bachelor of Arts in Hispanic Studies
At Brandeis, Hispanic Studies is not only about becoming a highly proficient Spanish speaker, reader, and writer. It is about examining and appreciating the cultural diversity of the Spanish-speaking world across continents and through time. You will learn through language lessons as well as through the study of literature, film, art, theater, and other cultural expressions.
Why Brandeis?
Our program is truly interdisciplinary in its perspective and its approach. While you continue to refine your oral and written communication in Spanish, you will gain a deeper understanding of Latin American and US-Latinx cultures. Our faculty are nationally recognized scholars who also love to teach. Our curriculum is flexible enough to enable you to learn from different instructors at your own level. A minor or major in Hispanic Studies is both exciting and useful–the perfect complement to majors and careers in the sciences, social sciences, or the humanities, culture, and the arts.

“I feel super comfortable on campus. I love it. That's one thing I tell my family: 'I'm me over here!' You can be who you are on this campus and who you want to be. I always say, '#nojudgment.'”
