Ours is a very active department, engaged with students at all levels, and contributing internationally to the scholarship advancing our field. We travel to parts of the world where Spanish, Portuguese, and Catalan are spoken, and encourage our students to participate in thoughtfully-designed overseas programs. Here on campus, you’ll find many events and activities to support your enjoyment of studies in Spanish and Portuguese. Make friends, attend a brown bag lunch event, or participate in a conversation café to strengthen your language learning.
