Master of Arts in Politics and Spanish and Latin American Studies

Program Overview

Politics and Spanish & Latin American Studies adds to your highly-developed skills in a modern European language and culture with an in-depth exploration of national, European and global politics, putting you at the forefront of contemporary world issues and taught by highly-regarded experts regularly commenting in the media on events unfolding in the world today. You’ll gain the perfect foundation for a wide range of careers in Europe, politics, media and many other fields and professions.

Spanish & Latin American Studies at Aberdeen has an outstanding reputation, with the highest possible rating of ‘Excellent’ in the last national Teaching Quality Assessment.

Aberdeen is one of the most dynamic places to study the Spanish language and the cultural frameworks in countries where it is spoken. We’ll equip you with the skills to communicate in a global language, spoken by 350 million native Spanish speakers in 19 Latin American states, the Spanish Peninsula, and increasingly in the US.

As an integral part of your 4-year programme, you will spend half of year three developing your language skills as a teaching assistant or visiting student in a Spanish-speaking country.

You’ll also study historical, anthropological, literary and cultural texts, films and visual culture of Spain and Latin American countries.

In Politics, you’ll be right at the front of debate on current world events – including Britain’s relationship with its European neighbours, and movements of regionalisation within the EU and the UK.

You’ll explore voting behaviour, different political systems, making and implementing policy, nationalism, concepts of democracy, and ever-present concerns of conflict and peace.

You can also take advantage of unique options made possible by the research pedigree of our academic team with a strong track record in publishing international papers and articles.

The combination of language, analytical and intellectual skills you’ll develop and their transferability will be a great foundation for any career including opportunities in you choose, including European business and organisations, NGOs, charities and international development, government service, marketing, and much more.
