A Joint Honours academic plan with Spanish may be taken in combination with most Arts disciplines in which an Honours academic plan is offered or with many Honours majors in other Faculties.
Continuation in this academic plan requires a cumulative average of 60% and a cumulative Spanish average of 75%.
Eligibility for graduation in the Joint Honours Spanish academic plan includes successful fulfillment of the following requirements:
- Appropriate Program-level requirements for the Home Faculty, including at least 21 academic course units. If the Home Faculty is Arts, see Bachelor of Arts.
- Spanish Plan-level requirements:
- at least eight academic course units (16 courses) in Spanish with a minimum cumulative average of 75%, including:
- SPAN 201A, 201B, 210, 222W (see WLU calendar), 223W (see WLU calendar), 227, 228, 301A, 301B, 401A, 401B
- one of SPAN 326, 327W (see WLU calendar)
- Plan-level requirements for the second Major.
Note: If any required courses are waived for students with advanced language skills, they must be replaced with SPAN electives
Notes:
- By agreement, students at the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University can be expected to take courses in Spanish at either university. While most language courses are taught concurrently every year at both universities, most other courses are taught either at one university or the other, and a few courses may rotate from year to year.
- With the permission of the Department, students may spend the third year enrolled in an acceptable university in Spain or Latin America.
- Students in Years Three and Four must have the permission of the home department to enrol in Spanish courses at the 100- or 200-level.
