The Department of Spanish Language and Literature of the Graduate
School of Kyung Hee University offers 3 majors in Spanish
language, Spanish literature, and Latin American literature.
We focus our education on enhancing students' professional
knowledge and profound understanding of Spanish language,
literature, and culture so that they can be specialists in
the field and have an organic sense of the Spanish language
and literature in connection with major political and social
events in the history. We offer courses in Spanish Linguistics,
Spanish Fiction, Film Studies, Spanish Cultural Studies, etc.
With this wide spectrum of knowledge, our students will be
well equipped to serve as professionals such as professors
in linguistics, cultural studies, Spanish studies, Spanish
literature as well as critics of film and mass media, working
for newspapers and magazines.
1) At least 24 course units of graduate level credit in Spanish
Language and Culture are required for the master's degree;
60 course units for the doctor's degree (including units completed
in the master's course).
2) Students have to pass a qualifying examination.
3) Students must fulfill presentation, defense, and document
requirements for the departmental thesis committee.
4) A thesis advisor can be any faculty member from the department.
