Semi-Integrated Spanish Studies with Local Students
Seville, Spain
The Semi-Integrated Spanish Studies program offers students the best combination of cultural preparation,
specially designed courses, and guided direct enrollment at local
universities. Designed for the advanced student that has completed two
semesters of advanced college Spanish, students combine study at the Spanish Studies Abroad
Center with courses at Universidad de Sevilla or Universidad Pablo de
Olavide.
At the Center you immerse yourself in Spanish language and culture
through courses specially designed for non-Spanish students, while
fulfilling the requirements needed for Spanish, international studies,
business, education and other majors. In addition to living in a Spanish home, you
are given the opportunity to participate in a full array of study tours,
cultural events, and social activities. At the Center, you also benefit
from the expertise of the staff, who guide you to more fully immerse
yourself in the sevillano community through volunteer work,
local clubs, internships, etc.
In addition to your regular classes at the Center, you also take one
or two courses at one of Seville's well-known universities - Universidad
de Sevilla or Universidad Pablo de Olavide. Students choose courses
from the universities' many disciplines, including humanities, science
