Integrated Studies Program APPLY NOW
Córdoba, Argentina
The Integrated program through Spanish Studies Abroad combines the best of both worlds - specially designed coursework taught in Spanish and integrated courses with Argentine students at the local university. Immerse yourself in university life at the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC) while receiving academic support and cultural guidance to achieve the maximum language acquisition and cultural integration. Make friends with locals and international students alike, practice Spanish with your host family over empanadas or mate, and experience the best of Argentina and your host city through cultural visits and excursions. This program has got it all!
The Integrated program is based upon Spanish Studies' unique Guided Direct Enrollment Model in which students benefit from three levels of cultural integration:
- Programa de Español y Cultura Latinoamericana (PECLA): Students enroll in 2-3 classes designed for international students through UNC's PECLA program
- Direct enrollment at Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. Students enroll in 1-2 integrated courses with Argentine students at UNC.
- The Resident Director guides students to consciously synthesize their cultural experience through a Spanish Studies-designed Cultural Realities course and one-on-one interaction.
