Spanish

- Alongside your study of Spanish language, you will explore a range of options in visual culture (including film), area-specific history, linguistics and literature.- The breadth of expertise among staff across Spanish and Latin American Studies means an unusually rich and broad curriculum.- 80% of our staff are first-language Spanish-speakers, and language courses are taught by native speakers with specific training.- You will also benefit from us working closely with the Centre for Latin American and Caribbean Studies and we maintain strong links with the Instituto Cervantes located here in Manchester.The course unit details listed below are those you may choose to study as part of this programme and are referred to as optional units. These are subject to change and are the latest example of the curriculum available on this programme.
