St. Louis University-Madrid: M.A. in Spanish

Dear Colleagues,

Are undergraduate Spanish majors at your university looking to pursue a
graduate degree abroad? Please share this message with your Spanish
department!

Saint Louis University-Madrid Campus offers a M.A. in Spanish in a context
of total cultural and linguistic immersion. In Spain’s vibrant capital, our
students place castellano in its historical and geographic context as they
study Spanish Peninsular and Latin American literature, language
acquisition theory and applied linguistics.

Our courses are rooted in the rich history, culture and arts of Spain and
Latin America. Students critique cinema of the post Spanish Civil War era
and delve into the character behind Don Quijote; they learn best practices
for effective language teaching and explore themes in Spanish dramatical
pieces.

Key program features:

   Three flexible degree completion options: the traditional academic year,
   over the course of three to four summers, or a combination of the two
   -

   Our faculty hold Ph.D.'s from leading European and U.S. universities and
   specialize in diverse literary periods across Spain and Latin America, as
   well as applied linguistics.
   -

   With Madrid as our campus, students take advantage of additional
   cultural and literary events, such as excursions, guest speakers and
   symposiums.
   -

   We offer the opportunity to gain hands-on teaching and research
   experience.
   -

   Qualified students are eligible for merit-based scholarships and
   assistantships.

Our M.A. graduates have gone on to earn doctoral degrees and to work in
sectors including language-program design and implementation, government,
consulting and marketing research, interpretation/translation and, of
course, teaching.
