UC Spanish
As well as offering undergraduate and postgraduate study opportunities in Spanish language and Hispanic culture, the Spanish Programme at UC organises each year a range of community and outreach events such as the Spanish Immersion Day for high school students learning Spanish, the Latin America & Spain Film Festival (in conjunction with the Embassy of Spain in New Zealand and Viva la Vida Events), the end of the year Spanish Fiesta for UC students, and Spanish Language Film Nights showcasing the richness of Latin American and Spanish cultures. By emphasising language, cultural and interdisciplinary studies, we prepare our students to understand and to appreciate the Hispanic world and to face the demanding challenges of our globalised world, while promoting cultural diversity at UC and its community.
