Lead with Spanish
Speaking Spanish can be a significant competitive advantage that sets you apart from your monolingual peers. In fact, language skills are among the top eight skills required of all occupations — no matter your sector or skill level. The Spanish minor at SDSU consists of courses that develop the communicative and cultural competence skills critical to today’s labor market. Credits can be earned with language for professions courses, through service-learning/study abroad or through an established internship program in Valencia, Spain.
