CIEE Summer Language and Culture Program in Seville, Spain

  Spain
  • Seville: 
  • Seville (Sevilla)

Term: Summer 
Dates: Session I 3 weeks: mid/late May-early/mid-June; Session II 3 weeks: early/mid-June-early July; Session III 3 weeks: early July-late July; Any 2 Sessions 6 weeks: bet mid/late May-late July; All 3 Sessions 9 weeks: mid/late Maylate July

Description: The Language and Culture summer program is designed to help students develop their Spanish language skills and expose them to Spanish culture through a brief, yet intense immersion experience. This is achieved through courses in Spanish language and culture, a conversational exchange program, a homestay program, and local visits and excursions.

Academic Program
The Language and Culture summer program focuses on two interwoven areas: Spanish language and Spanish culture and history. Special emphasis is placed on Andalusia and its capital Seville, within a European context.

Online Placement Exam
Prior to departure for Seville, all students are required to take a CIEE online placement exam during the scheduled exam period in mid-April. The purpose of this exam is to determine the student's level of Spanish, ensuring that he or she is placed in the appropriate language courses. Students should take this exam seriously, as placement in many upper level courses depends upon a high online placement exam score.

Academic Culture
Students may participate in one three-week session beginning in mid/late May, one three-week session beginning in early/mid-June, or one three-week session beginning in early July, or any combination thereof. Students may stay for one, two, or three sessions.

All courses meet daily, Monday through Friday, for three hours. The academic calendar includes dates for obligatory trips scheduled out of Seville. These hands-on learning experiences contribute greatly to the student's experience abroad. Instruction is interactive and dynamic. Many lectures take place in situ, so that the student can feel a part of the fascinating culture they are studying.

While extracurricular activities and personal travel contribute greatly to the student's overall European experience, attendance is mandatory for both classes and required events. Early departure for and/or late return from personal trips on weekends is not permitted. Any extended travel should take place prior to the start of the program or upon completion of the program.

Highlights:

  • Language instruction at all levels; students can attend one, two, or three sessions
  • Content classes on Spanish culture, politics, history and art linking the past and present; innovative courses designed for students interested in human rights, sociology, public health, or international relations
  • Cultural activities such as visits to museums, theaters, and traditional festivals
  • Excursions to sites of cultural importance including Granada, Cordoba, Carmona, Itálica, and Morocco; field trips in Seville and Andalusia
