In support of the SPU mission to cultivate graduates of competence and character, the European studies: Spanish major and minor programs seek to further the linguistic and cultural competence of our students by affording them stimulating and demanding opportunities in classroom settings and overseas.
The European studies option focuses on Spain as a member of the European community, its history, culture, and literature. Among many goals of this option is that of enabling students to discern issues surrounding Europe’s role in the modern world and hence become responsible citizens of our country where European/U.S. relations are concerned.

Russian is the first language of over 150 million people worldwide. It is spoken in Russia, the former Soviet Union, and in many communities in North America.
A major in Russian consists of 19 base credits as well as 40 credits in Russian, 25 of which must be upper division. In addition to beginning and intermediate Russian courses offered alternate years, students are strongly encouraged to participate in the CCCU Russian Study program or any other accredited study-abroad program to accumulate the required number of credits and to expand their knowledge of the language and country. A course in modern Russian literature and culture as well as independent-study options are also available.
Studying Russian language and culture is an intellectually stimulating and enriching experience that can lead to an exciting career in travel, business, commerce, and governmental and non-governmental organizations.

The study of linguistics focuses on the nature of language itself and on human beings as creators and users of language. It explores systems of sound and meaning; phrase and sentence structure; linguistic diversity; both first- and second-language acquisition; and language change over time.
Students of linguistics generally prepare themselves to enter professional fields such as translation, teaching, and linguistic research.
