Hispanic Studies Minor


It is strongly recommended that minors take SPAN 312*  or SPAN 309*  at the University of Tennessee prior to studying abroad. A maximum of 9 credit hours taken abroad may be counted towards the minor. Students whose level of proficiency in Spanish is superior as defined by the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines may substitute a 400-level course for SPAN 312*  with consent of the department. SPAN 311*  and SPAN 312*  are not available to native Spanish speakers or Spanish/English bilinguals, who should instead take SPAN 309*  and an additional 300/400-level course with consent of the department. SPAN 311*  may not be taken after completion of SPAN 312* .
