The Seaver College Hispanic studies (Spanish) program equips students with the language, skills, and knowledge to comprehend, speak, read, and write Spanish competently in real-life situations. Our Hispanic studies (Spanish) major prepares students to discuss the literature, culture, history and geography of Spain and Spanish America at a sophisticated level. Our ultimate goal is to foster awareness not just of another language and its culture, but also of the value of human diversity and each student's capacity to serve in light of this awareness.
Quality Assurance: Every institution should ensure that its degree programs undergo periodic reviews that incorporate an analysis of student achievement according to program learning outcomes (CFR 2.4). Faculty are responsible to exercise effective academic leadership on a consistent basis and be involved in ensuring that the program's quality and educational purposes are upheld (CFR 2.6). Program reviews also incorporate components of faculty activity relative to the mission of the program (CFR 2.8), achievement of learning outcomes (CFR 2.9), tracking and support for timely degree program completion (CFR 2.10), post-graduation monitoring and success (CFR 2.11), and assurance of prompt, accurate, and complete advising (CFR 2.12). - WSCUC 2023 Handbook, Standard 2
