Spanish - California State University - Fullerton

Spanish from California State University - Fullerton is a Campus Bachelor Language degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The Department of Modern Languages and Literatures offers a wide diversity of programs of language and teacher education aimed at meeting the varying needs of today's students. In our changing world, we must lower barriers to understanding. Communicating effectively in a foreign language is not simply an exercise in the acquisition of linguistic skills. In learning another language, we also gain insight into the thinking of another culture (often very different from our own); insights which afford us the perspective necessary to examine critically our own cultural values. In our department, we view language , culture, linguistics and literature as integrally related facets of the complex phenomenon of human communication which help us better understand ourselves, each other, our values, and our roles in a changing multicultural world.
