Imagine immersing yourself in Spanish language and culture and using that knowledge in your life and career. Saint Mary’s Spanish majors are well prepared for work opportunities that employ their foreign language and intercultural skills—and for graduate studies at top-tier programs.

Our modern language graduates are marketing directors, a language coordinator, sales representatives, and an international marketing specialist for companies, institutions, and organizations like Catholic Charities, Loyola University, Wal-Mart Foundation, Physicians for Peace, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Modern language graduates in French, Italian, and Spanish have pursued advanced degrees at the University of Denver, Stanford University, and DePaul University.

The Career Crossings Office can provide you with more information about life after Saint Mary's along with the guidance and tools to help you reach your objectives.
