Hispanic Studies Emphasis

The Hispanic Studies Emphasis offered within the Master of Liberal Arts Program at Minnesota State University Moorhead meets a need for graduate study in the region for people who are fluent in the Spanish language and wish to pursue advanced study of Spanish language, literature and culture.

The Master of Liberal Arts program is a personal enrichment program designed for the adult learner who wants to explore important ideas, read great books, and discuss significant intellectual, philosophical, moral, and cultural issues with other interested people.

Students in the Master of Liberal Arts Program/Hispanic Studies Emphasis will take Spanish courses at the graduate level as well as courses in the MLA Program.

Requirements for the degree are:

15 credits in the Hispanic concentration at the 500 or 600 level (including Spanish 630: Masterpieces of Spanish Literature).

12 credits at the 600 level in the MLA program at large

4 credits for a thesis (which must have a focus on Hispanic Studies)

Total: 31 credits
