Spanish/English Translation Minor
Gain in-demand skills in translation while growing your career prospects.
The Spanish/English Translation minor provides students with experience in crafting bilingual documents for business and professional needs. Students acquire both theoretical and practical experience working with real world documents and solving linguistic problems. Spanish/English translation students often work with local community agencies and schools to provide assistance.
This minor pairs well with majors in Spanish or Spanish-Teaching, though it is complementary with a range of programs.
