Regularly Offered Courses Counting for the Major: Following are courses regularly offered at Carleton that may be counted toward the requirements for the Spanish Major. Some of these courses are offered annually, others only every other year. Occasionally, faculty will offer special courses that can count toward the major or concentration, but that are not part of the regular College curriculum. This often happens when we have visiting faculty. If you are unsure whether such a course can be counted toward the Program, please consult with the faculty member or the Program Director.

Independent Study

There are topics in Spanish that we cannot cover in our courses, or that student may wish to pursue in greater depth than is possible within the constraints of a single course. Students may work on a special project of his or her own planning under the supervision of a faculty member in the department. Ordinarily, this work is not on the introductory level. By registration time for the term in which the study is done, the student is expected to obtain a faculty supervisor in the chosen field of concentration and, with his or her assistance and approval, determine the nature and purpose of the study and the number of credits to be assigned. The necessary forms are available in the Registrar's office.
