Course Designations

At the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, we view our students’ linguistic and cultural backgrounds as valuable resources. Spanish language and bilingual courses capitalize on the rich cultural and linguistic heritage that many students bring into our classroom and prepare our students to serve their surrounding community. When UTRGV was founded in 2013, the UT System Board of Regents called on UTRGV to explore biculturalism, bilingualism, and biliteracy as part of its fabric, and teaching Spanish language and bilingual courses respond to that call. 

The B3 Institute works to respond to this call by facilitating the development of bilingual and Spanish courses through the following designations and endorsements:

  • Bilingual Course Designation
  • Spanish Course Designation
  • Flexible Bilingual Pedagogy Endorsement
  • Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy Endorsement (Under development)

On the pages on this website, you will find detailed information about these course designations including their criteria and application processes. If you should have any questions or want to discuss getting your course designated, please contact us at b3institute@utrgv.edu
