Widely used around the world, Spanish has become the second-most-spoken language in the United States, touching all facets of our culture from media to education to business.

The Department of Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures offers you a Spanish major and minor with a hands-on approach that includes immersive study abroad programs, service learning in the Indianapolis community, and internships in both the U.S. and abroad. You will obtain the experiences necessary to improve language fluency and expand your understanding of cultures foreign from your own.

Join us and take advantage of:

• Access to Central Indiana’s rich Latino community, in which students interact in social and service learning capacities
• Opportunities for students to serve as Spanish-speaking teacher aides in Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS) classrooms
• Immersive study abroad, including faculty-led programs to Alcalá de Henares, Spain (one semester, offered every fall) and Costa Rica (three-week summer intensive)
• Internships both in the U.S. and abroad
