Semester in Barcelona: Spanish Immersion




Curriculum and Faculty

Global Learning Semesters is partnered with the Universidad Autonoma de Barcelona for our Semester in Barcelona program. Our host institution is fully accredited and will provide the transcript for students successfully completing academic course work. The semesters last between 22-23 weeks.

The study program includes a wide array of content courses in Spanish for students to choose from that allow them to focus on their academic interests.

Course Curriculum

Students must take between 180 and 225 contact hours. Courses at the UAB are distributed unevenly in terms of contact hours so make sure you take a close look at your choices to ensure that you have at least 180 contact hours (equivalent to 12 credits) in total. Students can take courses from 1 or maximum 2 subject areas. Enrollment for the courses of this program is not automatic and students finally enroll in person once in Barcelona.

Please select courses from the UAB course listing at the link below:

NOTE:

Students can also take COMM-280: Intercultural Communications. This is a 3-credit, online course offered by the University of Nicosia, Cyprus. Students will attend the course online, and the University of Nicosia will issue the transcripts.


Faculty

The UAB study program has a great number of professors, both Spanish and foreign, who teach in the different academic fields offered by the university. Many of our professors have studied, researched or worked in the United States, so they know the profile and the academic needs of the students very well. The class environment is dynamic and relaxed, which enables and facilitates student participation.
