Major
To achieve a Spanish Major, a student must take a minimum of 10 courses in the Department. A student who places lower than Advanced Spanish will require additional language study.
Here are some of the most popular double majors:
Spanish + Government
Spanish + English
Spanish + Economics
Spanish + Pre-Med Track
In addition, students can complete the Spanish Major with a Business Administration Minor: the International Business, Language, and Culture degree. The International Business, Language, and Culture (IBLC) Bachelor of Science program is a joint degree developed and offered by Georgetown College and the McDonough School of Business (MSB). Students in the College and MSB may apply to enter the IBLC program at the end of their first year.
