IES Abroad: Salamanca - Language & Area Studies

At IES Abroad, let the best of both worlds in Salamanca: the atmosphere of a university town—think bustling cafés and restaurants filled with students—and the charming hospitality of a small Spanish city. Practice your Spanish while ordering a café and immerse yourself in the university student scene, located in the historic part of town. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988, Salamanca is the most important university city in Spain and is known for its contributions to Spanish language education. Regardless of your major, you may combine your interests in linguistic and cultural proficiency with your academic pursuits. You can contribute to a local organization by participating in an education internship in the spring semester or, if you have advanced Spanish language skills, a community-based learning experience at a local not-for-profit organization in the fall semester.
