SPAN 3972w is structured around the production of a 20-25 page research paper that demonstrates the mastery of both the content-based areas of inquiry and the linguistic and discursive competences taught in the Spanish Studies and Spanish and Portuguese Studies majors. Course assignments and materials are designed to hone students' ability to formulate an interpretation of a cultural, literary, or linguistic object of the Spanish or Portuguese-speaking worlds; to support their reading with relevant examples and textual evidence; to adopt and maintain an analytical rhetorical stance; to employ a vocabulary and register appropriate for advanced academic discourse; and to integrate outside sources smoothly and effectively into their critical reading. The senior paper showcases the full range of skills and knowledge expected of students upon completion of the major programs of study, and ideally will represent the pinnacle of students' undergraduate trajectory.
