The bachelor’s degree program “Culture and Business/Hispanic Studies” offered at Hessen International University seamlessly intertwines foreign language, culture, and business components. Over the span of six semesters, students are deeply immersed in the realms of language, literature, and history of Spanish-speaking nations, alongside receiving comprehensive instruction in business and economics.

The curriculum seamlessly blends the study of Spanish language, literature, culture, and regional studies with a comprehensive exploration of economics. Within the “Culture and Language” domain, students have the option to select from two distinctive concentrations: “Transformation Processes” or “Intercultural Communication.” Notably, the program stands out for its substantial practical component. Practical and project-oriented modules enable students to develop interdisciplinary skills and the ability to work autonomously. A crucial facet of the curriculum is an essential international experience, be it a study semester abroad or an internship lasting a minimum of eight weeks within a Spanish-speaking country. Furthermore, the option of pursuing a dual degree program in conjunction with the related “Culture and Business / French Studies” program exists, owing to shared modules.

An ardent passion for Romance languages, specifically Spanish, stands as a primary prerequisite for this study program. Adequate language proficiency (language level A2/GER) must be demonstrated prior to commencing the program. Proficiency in mathematics, a solid comprehension of economic contexts, and analytical thinking skills are prerequisites for the economics segment.
