Spanish-English Translation Minor

Translation is the language of global communication, whether the text to be translated is a company’s year-end report, an ad campaign, a politician’s speech, a poem, or a novel. The interdisciplinary minor in Spanish-English Translation, suitable for both Arts and Sciences and Business majors, allows students with good skills in English and Spanish to perfect their knowledge of both languages and gain the ability to produce fluent, accurate, and effective translations between them.

The minor is open to all students who have successfully completed a 4000-level Literature or Culture and Civilization course in Spanish. To complete the minor, students must take three courses:

• SPA 4003, Spanish-English Translation Workshop
• The capstone, SPA 4004, Seminar in Translation: Spanish-English
• One 3000 or 4000-level course from the list of approved electives offered by the Departments of English, Communication Studies, or Modern Languages and Comparative Literature.

Note: This minor is open to students who are pursuing a major in Spanish. Students cannot use one course in both the major and the minor.

Requirements for the Minor

Students are expected to complete the minor requirements in place at the time they are officially accepted into their programs. Please review the College Bulletin for the relevant academic year.
