The Department of Spanish Language is one of the Faculty of Foreign Languages departments. It is in charge of teaching and contributing to promoting the Spanish Language and literature. The Department offers students the opportunity not only to acquire but also to master the Spanish language in order to meet the Jordanian society's demand of qualified graduates in the Spanish language.
Prior to its establishment as a department in 2021, the Spanish Language Program was one of the programs taught by the Department of Modern Languages. Currently, the Department has seven faculty members, six of them are Jordanians of various academic ranks who are graduates of Spanish universities, in addition to a Spanish lecturer.
There are approximately 500 students pursuing a dual major in the speciality of Spanish and English languages.
Welcome to the Department of Spanish Language,
The Department of Spanish Language has always been one of the most dynamic and committed departments at AABU. It is dedicated to the symbiotic relationship of teaching, research and the larger concerns of the campus and local communities. The Department structures its academic programs on the basis of their universal concerns, a practice that has readily accommodated changes in its disciplines that reflect the development of Spanish studies as a discipline and the developing mission of AABU University.
The study of literature, linguistics, and translation in both languages, Spanish and English, have been implemented in the curriculum. Our excellent faculty members work hard to improve the quality of the communication skills of the large number of students we teach. Our highly motivated students work hard to hone their ability to think critically about works of literature and linguistics to understand how those works influenced and were influenced by the cultural contexts in which they were produced.
They also develop excellent skills that will help them to succeed in any career they choose after graduation. Thus, our students learn to analyze complicated texts, speak about them with confidence, and effectively write detailed and persuasive essays that support their conclusions about the works they have studied with carefully chosen, logically arranged evidence.
