Why Warwick

About the department

Hispanic Studies at Warwick provides the opportunity to explore the extraordinary breadth and depth of Spanish language and Hispanic cultures in collaboration with recognised experts in the field.

You will have access to outstanding facilities and resources. This includes flexible collaborative and individual learning spaces, as well as a vast selection of print, digital and multimedia learning materials. Our Hispanic Studies BA offers the possibility to take a range of optional modules in other departments.

You will graduate as a highly qualified linguist, with advanced intercultural skills and a sophisticated understanding of key concepts and debates in Spanish-speaking cultures. The specialist communication, research, critical and evaluative skills you will gain are all highly sought after by employers.

With around 400 million speakers in the world, Spanish is one of the most important languages for commerce and cultural exchange.

This degree offers an innovative approach to studying the Spanish language alongside a diverse range of Hispanic cultures and history from across the world. You will be taught by academic specialists to develop your language skills and intercultural competence. Together, we will examine the historical, cultural, geographical, and political contexts in which Spanish is spoken across the world. Our flexible course covers cultural topics such as philosophy, literature, politics, history, linguistics, media and film. Core language modules develop an in-depth understanding of the Spanish language and its links to the cultural contexts where it is spoken. You can then choose optional modules to develop your academic interests in cross-school topics, a second language or Translation Studies.

You will normally spend a year studying abroad in Spain or a Spanish-speaking country. This is an invaluable opportunity to immerse yourself in the linguistic and cultural contexts where Spanish is spoken, enhance your language skills and build international connections.

Read more about entry requirements

In your first year, you will follow a core Spanish language programme at either beginner or advanced level.

To complement your language development, you will study a culture module that focuses on major figures and myths from across the Hispanic world, from Renaissance tricksters to Latin American revolutionaries. This provides an excellent and comprehensive foundation for studying further aspects of the Hispanic world's literary, visual and political culture in the later stages of your degree.

You will take one further module. This may be one of the interdisciplinary cross-School modules, a new language (from one of the four major language departments or the Language Centre), or a new module from another academic department.

In your intermediate and final years, you will continue to take core Spanish language modules and have a choice of a selection of other modules.

Our modules reflect the research specialisms of academics in the Hispanic Studies department and cover a broad range of subjects in culture, society, literature, politics, philosophy, film, and history.

Note that information found by following the links to the module catalogue is subject to change for future years of study, as we evolve our courses in response to the latest developments in academia and industry.

For the 2027-28 academic year, the UK government announced in March 2026 that the tuition fee cap for UK undergraduate students for the 2027-28 academic year would be £10,050.

If you are joining Warwick for the 2026-27 academic year, the University of Warwick’s Executive Board has confirmed a change in fees to £9,790 (from the 2025-26 rate of £9,535), following the UK government announcement in November 2025 to increase in the tuition fee cap for Home students for the 2026-27 academic year.

Students who qualify for government-regulated fees are classed as ‘Home’ students for fees purposes. In future years, fees for continuing students may be subject to an increase in fees in line with any inflationary uplift as determined by the UK Government (if permitted by law or government policy).

If you believe that your fee status has been classified incorrectly, you can complete a fee status assessment questionnaire. Please follow the instructions in your offer information and provide the documents needed to reassess your status.
