Bachelor of Arts (Spanish Studies)
Studying Spanish is not simply about learning a language – it's an experience that will open your mind to different cultures. This major equips you with fluency in spoken and written modern Spanish. Not only will you learn the language, you'll also study Spanish literature, films and popular cultures. This is sure to provide you with a holistic and stimulating cultural and educational experience. Spanish Studies is offered to beginners, and will help you achieve a highly functional level of competency in listening, speaking, writing and reading Spanish.
Students who are native speakers of Spanish will not be granted access to any of these units.
Students who have already taken Spanish courses elsewhere need to take a placement test in order to be granted access to units of Spanish that UWA offers, but they will not be eligible for the Spanish Major.
