Spanish programs traditionally have dual language track: 1) Spanish as a Foreign Language Track and 2) Spanish for Heritage Speakers Track for students who grew up in a Spanish-speaking environment but who have never studied it. This dual track will allow students, including bilingual individuals, to continue mastering their language and overall communication skills in Spanish.
