SPAN 305: Spanish for The Professions
Description
Designed for students interested in developing a functional use of Spanish for the professions (business, education, law, medicine, social work, etc.), from a Hispanic cultural perspective. Students will have an opportunity to practice and develop their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. The Spanish-speaking world will provide the cultural context, and the area of business the content area.
Span305 fulfills MLO 2: Language and linguistic knowledge. Through examining the world of business from a hispanic perspective, I was able to increase my Spanish vocabulary and improve my translating skills. The course evaluated different cultural aspects and terminology that were important factors to consider in the Spanish professional world. This helped prepare me for what to expect for job interviews, resumes, and positions in Spanish countries with a linguistical emphasis.
