CUI - Centro Universitario de Idiomas

In 1992, CUI was aimed to fulfill students’ needs regarding foreign language learning. However, as the result of a university extension project, shortly after these language courses were available to the community at large.

Today, we teach more than twenty languages at CUI: English, French, Portuguese, Italian, German, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Hebrew, Arabic, Russian, Spanish for foreign students and six aboriginal languages, Mapuche, Quechua , Guaraní, Toba-Qom, Tehuelche and Wichí, among others. CUI also offers online courses in English, Spanish, Italian, French and German

All language programs at CUI are a natural extension of university activities. Actually, the Superior Council of the School of Agronomy of Universidad de Buenos Aires has duly approved all our course contents. CUI is well known for the quality of its programs and for the professionalism of its teaching staff. Teacher training is constant during the year, whether in seminars inside CUI or outside. Another distinct feature of CUI is the outstanding diversity in terms of ideology, educational background, life experience, and age of its student population. These are key factors that contribute to enrich classroom activities and help promote discussion and debate as a means of language acquisition.

To meet the needs of its twenty thousand students, CUI offers an extensive time schedule, ten venues strategically located around the city and in the suburbs, spacious classrooms, a bookstore, a multimedia workshop, a cafeteria, a library, and a variety of services. Our goal is always to help optimize study and recreational time.

The CUI created its Spanish Programs in Buenos Aires in 1998. They were aimed to satisfy the growing demand from students and travelers from all around the world who visit Buenos Aires and want to learn Spanish along with our local culture.

CUI | Spanish Programs soon became a hub for those foreigners seeking for Argentine higher education programs. The reason is we offer a large net of cooperation with local Universities, both public and private. Therefore, students can enroll through us not only to Spanish courses in Buenos Aires, but also to undergraduate and graduate careers, short-term programs, seminars and the typical Study Abroad programs. In all cases, CUI offers options for both semester and summer formats, in Spanish or in English (on demand). All our programs can render University Credits.
