Spanish in India

“La gente de EspaƱa” or the people of Spain have always been facinated by India and its culture. The comercial and tourist aspect of the country have also attracted them. Futhermore, the Spanish language has also taken over India. A slew of people are opting for a degree in this language every year. Giving in to the high and ever increasing demand, several Arts Colleges in India have started providing courses for Spanish.

A great advantage of opting for a degree in Spanish is that this degree opens up a huge number of opportunities for graduates in India as well as abroad. The job opportunities available in Hispanic countries such as Mexico, Argentina and other Latin American countries are well paying and interesting to the Indian youth. In addition, there is tremendous demand for Spanish graduates in Spain’s embassies in India for translation as well as India’s embassies in Spain and other Hispanic countries. Graduates from the top 10 arts institutes in India are highly preferred.

Another reason behind the increase in the popularity of Spanish amongst the Indian youth is the easiness of the language. Experienced professors and seniors from top colleges state that students prefer choosing Spanish over other languages like Sanskrit, French, Mandarin and German as these languages require years of intensive practice and learning by an individual so that he or she is able to converse in it or speak and write it whereas Spanish is much easier and quick to learn, speak and write.
