It can be especially useful for students interested in South and Central America, or those who want to work with Spanish-speaking populations within the United States.

Spanning many countries and island territories, South America is home to many Spanish-speaking countries. Here, students can literally walk through history on their way to class and soak up the culture of ancient societies.

Academic institutions around the world offer a BSc or Bachelor of Science. This popular undergraduate degree is helpful in preparing students for the workplace or for advanced degree programs. The average BSc takes three to five years to complete.
