Students must complete at least 21 credits of Spanish Studies Electives. At most, 8 credits may come from the Additional Electives without a Critical Analysis prerequisite.
Honors students completing their honors thesis in Spanish Studies need to take a Spanish 5xxx course as a Spanish elective and SPAN 3972W as their capstone. These students must also take SPAN 3994 Directed Research (3 cr.) the semester before they take SPAN 3972W. SPAN 3994 will count as an elective with a Critical Analysis prerequisite.

A primary focus of the Capstone is sustained research. Students completing their Honors thesis in Spanish Studies must enroll in SPAN 3972W. Students not pursuing their honors thesis in Spanish Studies may fulfill their capstone by enrolling in either SPAN 3792W or a SPAN/PORT/SPPT 5xxx course with instructor permission.
Students who double major in CLA and choose to complete the capstone requirement in their other CLA major may waive the Spanish Studies BA capstone, but they do need to replace the 3 credits with another Spanish elective with a Critical Analysis prerequisite. Students whose other major is outside of CLA must complete the Spanish Studies capstone.
SPAN 3972W involves a semester-long research project in which the student, in consultation with the course's faculty member, selects a topic related to Spanish literature, culture, or linguistics; carries out research on that topic; and presents the results of this research in the form of a research paper (typically 20-25 pages) written in Spanish.
