Master of Arts (Honours) - Spanish and History (RV41)

Spanish is the official language in 20 countries and widely spoken in four more territories, including the United States. Studying Spanish and History helps you understand the contemporary world, as well as shedding light on the past. Spanish at Edinburgh celebrated its centenary in 2019, and The University of Edinburgh wide-ranging courses are taught by leading experts in their field, inviting students to explore the diverse and rich cultures of Spain and Latin America. Intensive language training, including a year abroad, gives them the opportunity to develop advanced speaking, writing, reading and translating skills in Spanish.

Students will be immersed in an extraordinary range of literature, film, poetry and theatre from around the world, explored in its historical context. They will learn how to discern different varieties and registers of Spanish, and gain crucial intercultural competencies.
