The Spanish major at Parkside is about discovering and exploring a language with a rich history that consists of many dialects and serves as a gateway to exciting cultures and noteworthy modern and historical literature.

Parkside students often pursue a double major or pair a Spanish major with a minor in business management, legal studies, political science and more. Their bi-lingual proficiency propels them into careers in education, translating and interpreting, business, and the health professions.

The Literatures and Languages Department also offers internships in collaboration with area businesses, governmental agencies, and nonprofit agencies.
