"Because of the energy and passion of the teachers in showing us the different aspects of Hispanic culture and literature and in promoting its rich variety, I ended up absolutely fascinated and decided that I wanted more of this...

What you get from the program is not only a language, but also a totally new vision on life and values. Your understanding of the world will never be the same once you approach Hispanic Studies...at Bishop’s !!!"

Spanish has been taught at Bishop's since 1982. During these years, the curriculum has been constantly growing. All courses are taught in Spanish and fall into language, civilization and culture, linguistics, and literature. Third year courses on Spain and Spanish America alternate on a year-to-year rotation.

• Bishop's students can participate in exchange programs with universities in Spain, Argentina, Puerto Rico, and other Spanish-speaking countries.  Scholarships are available to help offset travel costs.
• Bishop's is one of the three official Spanish language exam Centres in Quebec.
• Although professors use a variety of materials in their classes, you can immerse yourself further in the language by going to the Library for DVDs, audiotapes, videos, movies, CDs and CD-ROMs, or for reading materials.
