Spanish MA

The Spanish MA program at the University of Glasgow provides a rigorous foundation in the second most widely spoken language in the world. Whether starting as a beginner or an advanced learner, students benefit from small-group sessions with native speakers representing the diverse Spanish-speaking world. The curriculum extends beyond linguistic mastery, exploring the vibrant cultures of Spain and Latin America through film, historical texts, and contemporary media.

A defining feature of the degree is the mandatory third year abroad, where students can work as language assistants via the British Council or study at a partner university, such as in Seville or Mexico City.

In the Honours years, students specialize in linguistic and cultural topics, often integrating their studies with subjects like Digital Media or Politics. Graduates emerge as agile professionals, finding success in journalism, international marketing, and translating, equipped with the intercultural competence necessary for the 21st-century global economy.
