Miami offers an array of study abroad programs in Spanish-speaking countries.

Various workshops on language and culture are run by Miami faculty in Spain and Latin America on a frequent basis.  For example, in the Miami in Spain program, students experience Spanish culture from different perspectives. The program offers courses on Spanish language, literature, and linguistics (up to 9 credit hours, including thematic sequence options and major requirements) taught by Miami faculty in Gijón, where students live with host families. Additionally students learn about Spanish culture through a Culinary Trip around Spain. Miami students have the opportunity to examine cinema and literature while taking conversation and composition courses in Cartagena, Colombia or to study Medical Spanish while working with local doctors in Granada, Nicaragua.  Miami also sponsors study abroad programs for the intermediate language learner which take place in different locations throughout Argentina.

Please see the tabs at the left for more information on our programs.
