Further, a course in phonetics aims to perfect pronunciation and presents historical and dialect variants of Spanish. The introductory courses in literature, also to be taken in the third year, emphasize the analysis and appreciation of complete literary works rather than the study of many short selections of innumerable authors in an anthology. The courses in Hispanic civilization combine a panoramic overview with a close look at a specific country or topic. Although a major in Portuguese is not offered, advanced literature courses are available. In addition, an undergraduate minor is offered.
Programs are available for the summer, one quarter, one semester, or one year.
While studying abroad through EAP, students can continue to make progress toward their UCI degree. See the Center for International Education section of the Catalogue or an academic counselor for additional information. See pages 54-58. See page 190. Spanish 10B may be taken concurrently with upper-division Spanish courses.
