The Spanish Program at TCNJ offers exciting classes from the beginning to the advanced level. Our faculty hail from many countries and are committed to providing quality, student-engaged instruction in Spanish. The Spanish major provides intensive study of the language, literature, and cultures of the Spanish-speaking world. Students who opt to take courses beyond the beginning level can complete a Spanish minor, with 5 courses at the intermediate and advanced level. Bilingual students can also take Spanish for Heritage Speakers.
