Annotation

Linking foreign language, culture and business: The Bachelor's degree course "Culture and Economics/Hispanic Studies" makes this possible. In six semesters, students not only specialise in the language, literature and history of hispanophonic countries, but business and economics content are also taught. The course combines Spanish linguistic, literary, cultural and state studies with an in-depth study of economics. In the area of "Culture and Language", there are two different specialisations to choose from: "Transformation Processes" or "Intercultural Communication". The degree course is characterised by its high practical components: In practical and project modules, students learn to work independently and interdisciplinary. A stay abroad is an integral part of the curriculum – whether as a semester or as at least an eight-week internship in a French-speaking country. A degree programme with vocational and academic elements of study with the related degree course "Culture and Economics/French Studies" is suitable as there are many common modules. Probably the most important requirement for this course is an enthusiasm for Romance languages – in this case Spanish. Proof of sufficient language skills (language level A2/CEFR) must be provided before commencement of studies. A good understanding of mathematics and economic relationships as well as analytical thinking skills are required for the economic studies part. Intercultural Communication and Business – specialisation Spanish. Part-time study is quite possible due to the course of study in this degree course. Upon request, you can register for part-time studies in accordance with Section 19 (2) Hesse Higher Education Act (HessHG). The specific provisions for part-time studies will then apply. Counselling by the subject-specific student advice service is recommended.
