About
Spanish
Our world needs professionals who live lives marked by uncompromising Christlike values, dedication and compassion. At Cornerstone University, a major in Spanish prepares students for advanced language study, teaching or professions that require a knowledge of the Spanish language and diverse cultural products and perspectives.

The Spanish program reflects our commitment to developing students’ knowledge, skills and attitudes in five distinct yet interconnected areas: specialized knowledge; applied knowledge and collaborative learning; intellectual skills; civic and global learning; and biblical worldview integration.
