²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓÆµµ¼º½ : 4.28.7 BA in Spanish

A. FACULTY OF ARTS REQUIREMENTS

Students must adhere to the applicable Faculty of Arts requirements in 3.4 Graduation.

B. MAJOR-FIELD REQUIREMENTS

Students should choose a first half course appropriate to their command of the language. Students with no previous training in Spanish will normally begin with Spanish 201. Those with credit in Spanish 30, 31 or equivalent should normally enrol in Spanish 203. In all cases of doubt students are strongly urged to seek the advice of the Department and indeed are encouraged to do so at all stages of their program of study.

Students must successfully complete a minimum of 7.0 and a maximum of 10.0 full-course equivalents in the Field of Spanish while fulfilling the following requirements:

1. Core Language Sequence: 3.5 full-course equivalents consisting of Spanish 201, 203, 301, 303 and 323, 405, 505. Spanish 205 can be substituted for Spanish 203 and 301.

2. Additional Core Courses: 1.5 full-course equivalents including Spanish 407, 421, 423.

3. Upper-Level Courses:

(a) 0.5 full-course equivalent from courses labelled Spanish at the 400-level.

(b) 1.5 full-course equivalents from the field of Spanish at the 500-level.

C. DEGREE OPTIONS

The BA in Spanish can be taken with Co-operative Education. See section 3.4.5 Co-operative Education Programs for information and requirements.

Notes:

The Department offers language courses and non-language courses. The language sequence in B.1 must be taken in the set order except that Spanish 303 and 323 may be and normally should be taken concurrently. Since careful degree planning is necessary to meet prerequisites, students should work closely with the Department and the Student Success Centre.
Students entering with Spanish 30 or the equivalent may be exempted from Spanish 201 and enter directly into Spanish 203 or 205. Please consult with the Department for appropriate placement. Students starting at a higher level than Spanish 201 must replace those language courses from which they have been exempted by any Spanish non-language courses (literature, linguistics, civilization, culture) or by any senior Romance Studies (ROST) courses.
Spanish 205 is a full course offered in a single term that is designed primarily for students entering with Spanish 30 or equivalent who wish to progress quickly though the curriculum.
It is strongly recommended that students, in consultation with the Department, choose an area of focus consisting of at least 2.0 full-course equivalents from disciplines related to their interests in the Hispanic world (from areas such as Political Science, History, Latin American Studies or Women's Studies).
