Understanding a society is inextricably linked to understanding a language.
When you learn a new language, a whole world of knowledge and new perspectives will open up for you.
If you wish to understand Latin America and the unique challenges the region faces in dealing with climate change, the ability to speak, write, and read Spanish will be very useful.
By combining language studies with social science studies, you gain a deeper understanding of both.
As a student of Spanish, you will quickly become much better at the language when you have the opportunity to practice it every day. You live in a small town where you will constantly engage in conversation with Costa Ricans, and you will be surrounded by the language every day.
Language learning becomes a part of your daily life – and you will also be reminded daily of the value of nature and complex ecosystems.
Costa Rica has an enormous biological diversity, and large areas of protected nature that you can explore on excursions and field trips.
By studying environmental studies in Costa Rica, you gain international expertise that is sought after in the job market, for example in tourism, aid, or education.
The study is particularly relevant for work with environment and sustainability within voluntary organizations or the public sector. However, all industries must address sustainability in one way or another.
Regardless of whether you want to work as a teacher, become an economist or engineer, or start your own business in the future, sustainability will be a relevant topic and your expertise can be useful.
Language proficiency is sought after in many parts of the workforce.
Regardless of whether you're going to work as a teacher, nurse, retail associate, or in academia, it will be beneficial to know a language that so many people speak.
If you want to live in a Spanish-speaking country in the future, your language skills will make it easier to get a job in the country.
If you want to work in an international company, Spanish skills can create exciting opportunities for you.
