Program Overview
A Bachelor’s degree in Spanish with Teacher Certification provides students with an enriched view of the world as well as Spanish language skills that will prove useful in many professions. With its emphasis on research, writing, and creative and analytical thought, a Spanish major prepares students for graduate studies in Spanish, as well as for professional school and for work in professions such as law, teaching, business, management, and publishing. Many Spanish majors combine their Spanish studies with other areas to prepare for career opportunities in international business, government, travel, or communications, where knowledge of a foreign language and of foreign cultures is essential. The degree provides a pathway to teacher certification for students who wish to become Spanish teachers.
UTRGV is approved by the State Board of Educator Certification to recommend students who complete all requirements for this degree for teacher certification.
