SPN 310 - Spanish for the Professions1 course unit Using real-life case studies and scenarios, this course introduces students to professional practices in the Hispanic world. Contacts with local professionals, both inside and outside of the classroom, allow students to explore the numerous possibilities of using their linguistic and cultural knowledge of Spanish beyond the academic environment, such as working for companies with international offices, NGOs, and other institutions in Latin America, Spain, and in the growing Spanish-speaking communities of the United States. The specific areas explored will be based on students’ own interests and majors in order to assist them in developing their future career path while incorporating Spanish within those goals. This course focuses on acquiring the proper writing, analytical, and oral presentational skills necessary for such careers. In addition to linguistic training, students learn techniques for cross-cultural analysis vital to conducting business and other professional endeavors in Spanish-speaking contexts. Taught in Spanish. Prerequisite(s): SPN 301 - Spanish Conversation & Composition or SPN 303 Spanish for Heritage Speakers II
