Program Overview
Program Overview
With stunning vistas, a booming economy and vibrant cultural life, Rio truly earns its title as the "Marvelous City." And given that it is home to Brazil’s largest media company, Globo, and serves as the base for many national and international media organizations, it’s also the perfect site to examine the transforming nature of contemporary media culture from a national and global perspective.
Through intensive language study, direct enrollment, and field-based co-curricular programming, study abroad in Rio fosters cultural immersion, strengthens your capacity to perform in teams, and helps you develop familiarity with relevant professional environments.
Studay abroad in Brazil and you will:
- Increase the complexity, fluency, accuracy, and appropriateness of your oral Portuguese in private and public settings
- Discuss the future of the information market in the face of the new tools and media available to both producers of content and general public
- Manage the use of digital tools for the production of informative content

Coursework
In Brazil you’ll have access to a full curriculum through direct enrollment at Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), one of the country’s most prestigious universities. Elective content courses are offered through PUC-Rio’s Social Communication and Design departments, which encompass the following programs: advertising and marketing, journalism, cinema (includes television and radio), visual communication, and digital media.
Site Visits
Studying abroad in Rio, you’ll enjoy faculty led visits to local media companies, exhibitions, design events, and other cultural activities relevant to the focal themes of the program:
- Make a day trip to visit Projeto Jacarepaguá, the main center of television production for the O Globo organization, and Latin America’s largest audiovisual production center
- Visit Radio Rocinha, the local radio station and community voice of the largest favela in Brazil called Rocinha
- Other site visits include stops at the Rio’s Oi Futuro Telecommunications Museum that traces the adventure of human communication, and the Museum of Image and Sound, the first audiovisual museum in Brazil.
Volunteering
Given Rio de Janeiro’s rich culture of volunteerism and community service, community engagement is an important cultural and educational component to the study abroad program.
You will have an opportunity to partner with a local community center or non-governmental organizations to design and carry out projects on NGO PR and visibility oriented towards disseminating the positive message, work, and mission of the organization.
Community engagement and service activities will be linked to the subject matter and learning goals of the program (i.e. assisting local communities in documenting their culture, marketing social and community development causes and initiatives, and volunteer work on media and communications projects).

About the City
About The City
Rio de Janeiro ("January River”) is the capital city of the State of Rio de Janeiro, the second largest city of Brazil, and the third largest metropolitan area in South America. The city was the capital of Brazil for nearly two centuries during the Portuguese colonial era. Rio is nicknamed the Cidade Maravilhosa or "Marvelous City" thanks to its dynamic urban vibe, expansive beaches, and abutting rain forest. Rio represents the second largest GDP in the country and is the headquarters of major Brazilian companies. It's home to many universities, and the second largest center of research and development in Brazil.
Rio is the most visited city in the southern hemisphere and is known for its natural setting, Carnival celebrations, samba, Bossa Nova, and renowned beaches such as Copacabana and Ipanema. Rio’s iconic landmarks include the giant statue of Christ the Redeemer atop Corcovado Mountain, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, and Maracanã stadium, one of the world's largest football stadiums. Rio de Janeiro will host the 2016 Summer Olympics, the first South American city to host the event, as well as the championship match of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

Where You'll Study
Where You'll Study
The Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio) is a private, non-profit Catholic university created in 1941. It is one of the largest and most prestigious Brazilian universities, ranked by the Brazilian Ministry of Education as the best private university in the country in 2009. PUC-Rio has approximately 12,000 undergraduate students, 2,500 graduate students, and 4,000 extension students. PUC-Rio is widely acclaimed for its excellent law, engineering, computer science, psychology, economics, business and international relations programs. The University is also known for bringing in the broadest types of students in order to foster and develop diversity amongst its student body. PUC-Rio has numerous bilateral relationships with U.S. universities however it does not presently work with any third party providers. The University is located on a former coffee farm in Gávea, a neighborhood located in the south zone of city at the edge of the Tijuca Forest.
The forested campus has a student community area with restaurants and coffee shops, banks, free wireless and a major public bus stop. PUC-Rio has three sports areas where many sports such as football (soccer), volleyball, and capoeira are played. In addition, both international and regular students are allowed to swim at one of the most famous clubs in town, the Flamengo Football (soccer) Club which is located within walking distance of campus. Gatherings are organized specifically for international students in order to help them integrate into the university community. Students can also participate in other extracurricular and cultural activities.
Housing & Meals
Housing & Meals
Students have the choice of two housing options, and breakfast is included with both.
- Family Homestays—CIEE works with homestay families in Rio. Homestay families live in a radius of three to four miles from campus which can be accessed using public transportation. Sharing in the life of a family through a homestay provides an excellent opportunity for interested students to deconstruct stereotypes and observe real life in action. It also creates opportunities for dialogue about issues raised in their courses and to practice their Portuguese language skills.
- Group Homestays—the group homestay option is best for students who prefer to live with another student or a small group of students in a secure and friendly environment. Participants share rooms in homes along with a Brazilian family or overseen by a local Brazilian resident assistant. Students enjoy independence and student camaraderie in a convenient urban location.
Although every attempt is made to grant each student’s preference, roommate and housing assignments are based upon availability and other factors. Therefore, housing preferences cannot be guaranteed.
Housing is not provided between semesters. Calendar- and academic-year students who remain in Brazil during this period are responsible for arranging and paying for their own housing and meals during this time—approximately one month for the calendar-year program (July) and two months for the academic-year program (December to February). In all housing, CIEE requires a Portuguese language commitment at all times to encourage the development of language skills and facilitate student integration into and knowledge of Rio de Janeiro and Brazilian culture.
Orientations
Orientations
You'll begin your study abroad experience in Rio de Janeiro by participating in a CIEE online pre-departure orientation. Once on-site, a three-day orientation session at the beginning of the program will introduce you to the city of Rio, PUC, Brazilian culture, and your academic program. The orientation includes specially-designed sessions on health and safety, local transportation, living logistics, and community engagement opportunities.
Safety
The CIEE program orientation includes several sessions on local safety and security issues. Although violent crime is rare, you must take care when traveling around Rio. Rio is a major tourist destination with a significant population of poor residents. Even though safety and security are improving rapidly and noticeably in tandem with economic development and the spotlight on upcoming major international events, you must be aware of and prepared for safety issues. CIEE staff not only discusses security and safety concerns in depth before and during the program, but also prints safety information and holds learning activities in the field to review safety issues and behavioral advice.
Health
There are no major health concerns in Rio. Brazil has an adequate health care system and there are numerous quality clinics and hospitals available to you in Rio in the event of illness or emergency.
Transportation
The CIEE study abroad program orientation includes information on using public and private transportation (local buses, subway and taxis) safely and effectively. Local transportation can be used to safely travel around Rio and within Brazil.
Internet
Internet
You are encouraged to bring a wireless-enabled laptop. Many host families have Internet access in their homes in some form but you need to be aware that this is not a guaranteed feature of homestays. You will have access to the Internet (wireless and broadband) in computer labs at PUC-Rio and at Internet cafés, often called LAN houses, throughout the city. Internet reliability and access is not always available at the same level as in the U.S.; however, Brazil enjoys an advanced telecommunications infrastructure and major cities typically provide for ubiquitous access.
Culture

Cultural Activities and Field Trips
The academic program is supplemented by field trips and excursions to various points of interest around Rio and Brazil and may include visits to sites of historic and cultural importance to Rio and its environs. These activities, which vary each semester to take advantage of seasonal and current attractions, may include a tour of the city of Rio, guided visits to the city’s numerous national museums, tours of historical neighborhoods, attending soccer matches, participating in Carnaval activities, and taking advantage of Rio’s rich and diverse arts culture. The CIEE study center will host a series of lectures and films followed by discussions. The lectures and films will in consist of local professionals in the production field and themes that will highlight Brazil’s different styles, contributions, and current media environment.
You will benefit from local field-based activities including faculty led visits to local media companies, exhibitions and design events, and other cultural activities relevant to the focal themes of the study abroad program. You will take a day trip to visit Projeto Jacarepaguá, known as Projac, the main center of television production for the O Globo organization and Latin America’s largest audiovisual production center. Globo is the fourth largest TV commercial network in the world, and although its production center is outside the city at Projac, its headquarters is located in the neighborhood of Jardim Botanico only a few kilometers down the road from PUC-Rio. On the other end of the spectrum from Globo, you will visit Radio Rocinha. Radio Rocinha is the local radio station and community voice of the largest favela in Brazil called Rocinha. Other site visits specific to this program will include visits to the Rio’s Oi Futuro Telecommunications Museum that traces the adventure of human communication, and the Museum of Image and Sound, the first audiovisual museum in Brazil.
In addition, there will be one overnight excursion each semester, either to Salvador da Bahia, Brazil’s third largest city and capital of the culturally distinct northeast region and Afro-Brazilian heartland, or Sao Paulo, the largest city and economic capital of Brazil and the Americas. Events and activities are chosen to provide you with a good overview of the geographic, cultural, and economic diversity in Rio and coastal Brazil, and to complement the academic theme of each program. The three-day excursion will allow you to experience very different types of metropolises and draw comparisons with Rio de Janeiro. CIEE`s organized activities will involve Social Communication’s professors at local universities. Media related talks and site visits will enable you to develop new perspectives on how media practices differ in a racially, culturally, and historically distinct urban centers.
Community Engagement
Community engagement is an important cultural and educational component of this program, and Rio de Janeiro has a rich culture of volunteerism and community service. As part of the program, CIEE staff will arrange individual and group community engagement activities with various organizations and communities throughout the greater Rio area. The projects will be designed to give you a firsthand look at the social challenges facing Rio and the surrounding area. Through local contacts and its partnership with PUC-Rio, CIEE will establish a dynamic network of community partnerships with local NGOs, schools, and other organizations. You may also arrange to volunteer additional hours after school and on weekends.
You will have an opportunity to partner with a local community center or non-governmental organization to design and carry out projects on NGO PR and visibility, oriented towards disseminating the positive message, work, and mission of the organization.
With placement assistance from CIEE, you will be expected to share your interest and knowledge in the media arts with local children and adolescents from the under-privileged neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro. You will be able to teach basic design, desktop publishing, and communications strategies to individuals and groups through one on one coaching and group workshops at the CIEE Study Center to incentivize creative interest and develop skills in the communication arts among under-privileged local youth.
Community engagement and service activities will be linked to the subject matter and learning goals of the study abroad program (i.e. assisting local communities in documenting their culture, marketing social and community development causes and initiatives, and volunteer work on media and communications projects). While these activities will be optional, they will be included in the program fee in order to foster higher levels of participation.
Academics
Academics
The CIEE Study Center office will be based on or near the Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Rio de Janeiro campus. Prior to the full academic term, the semester program begins with an Intensive Language and Culture Program (ILCP) lasting four weeks. The ILCP is also offered as a stand-alone program for students wanting to study intensive language for one month during the winter intersession and summer break. The ILCP includes intensive Portuguese classes according to students’ individual levels, homestays with local families, and cultural activities. These aspects of the pre-semester program are designed to provide students with the linguistic and cultural foundation for their semester or year in Brazil.
CIEE study abroad students will enroll in a 23-week extended academic term. Instruction for all classes is in Portuguese. CIEE students will study alongside local PUC students and should expect significant cross-cultural and academic exchange with host university students.
Through extensive available elective courses, students are afforded the opportunity to study diverse academic topics and practical skills within the media and communications fields in a university environment. Students completing the program will be able to demonstrate deeper knowledge, literacy, and skills in one or more of the subject areas offered in the program. Students will also develop their capacity for intercultural understanding and the capacity to communicate across cultures with a focus on business communication tools and skills.
Elective content courses are offered through PUC-Rio’s Social Communication and Design departments, which encompass the following academic programs: advertising and marketing, journalism, cinema (includes television and radio), visual communication, and digital media).
As a required component of the study abroad program, students will be placed in two intensive language classes according to their ability as determined by a placement exam at the outset of the program. One intensive course is offered prior to the start of the regular semester, and another during the regular semester. Courses are available for students at all language levels, however students are expected to arrive in Brazil with sufficient background in Spanish or Portuguese such that they will be able to enroll in their desired content courses following the month-long ILCP program.
Academic Culture
Brazilian universities tend to convey knowledge through different strategies and methods; innovation, design, participation, memorization, and expositive lectures are all part of the in-class academic culture. In many lecture and theoretical classes, a great deal of emphasis is placed on note taking. It can take a while to learn how to study effectively in the Brazilian system, especially in terms of acquiring reading material and understanding professors’ expectations. In this program, many study abroad students will take classes that embrace more group work and production projects that will be more collaborative and practical in nature.
Nature of Classes
Courses are taught by local faculty with postgraduate degrees (M.Sc., M.A., and PhD), most of whom are instructors at PUC-Rio or other top Brazilian universities.
Grading System
Assessment for courses is typically based on a combination of written and oral assignments and a final paper or examination. The Brazilian grading scale goes from one to 10, with five being a passing grade and seven considered satisfactory in general. The CIEE Study Centers in Brazil convert grades and credits to the U.S. system according to a predetermined scale.
CIEE Community Language Commitment
Students take part in the CIEE Community Language Commitment by speaking Portuguese at all times (except in emergencies). This fosters a learning community that will contribute to both Portuguese language proficiency and understanding of Brazilian society.
Writing Center and Tutorials
CIEE organizes tutorials for study abroad students to help them overcome linguistic barriers in reading, writing, comprehension, and speaking which may affect their progress.

CIEE Study Center Syllabi
To view the most recent syllabi for courses taught by CIEE at our Study Centers, visit our syllabi site.
Required Intensive Language and Culture Program Courses
Upon arrival, students take a language placement exam to determine which language course they will take during the ILCP. The courses prepare international students to attend regular university courses in the academic and subject areas listed above, among others. Courses consist of 60 to 90 hours of instruction. Most students who speak Spanish with average fluency are expected to be able to attend regular courses at PUC-Rio after completing the ILCP.
The ILCP program will offer intensive Portuguese at the following levels:
- Level I – BEGINNER Portuguese as a Second Language
- Level II – INTERMEDIATE I Portuguese as a Second Language
- Level II – INTERMEDIATE II Portuguese as a Second Language
- Level IV – ADVANCED I Portuguese as a Second Language
- Level V – ADVANCED II Portuguese as a Second Language
The ILCP’s Pre-Term Portuguese as a Second Language intensive courses are offered twice a year prior to each semester. Students with lower proficiency can enroll in the CIEE Language and Culture program in which they are able to take coursework at PUC-Rio taught in English.
Required Semester Portuguese Language Courses
The http://www.letras.puc-rio.br/ at PUC-Rio offers regular and intensive language courses that develop students’ abilities to understand, speak, read, and write Portuguese in both formal and informal situations.
There are five proficiency levels offered in the Portuguese as a Second Language program. Level I, II, and III consist of 90 hours of instruction per term (six hours per week), corresponding to six academic credits. Level IV and V consist of 60 hours of instruction per term (four per week) corresponding to four academic credits. In order to place candidates according to their proficiency, students take a mandatory pre-program placement test which is available online. Candidates who test above Level V will be allowed to attend the university's regular undergraduate introductory Portuguese language courses.
The student-centered methodology is active, participatory, and prioritizes work in pairs and groups, as well as activities requiring students to solve tasks and navigate situations. Mistakes are part of the learning process and the course methodology encourages students to self-correct and correct their peers as a precursor to correction by the teacher. Classes will be based on a core text with supporting audio and visual materials. Courses included a mix of practical activities, lectures, auditory exercises, and reading and analysis of texts and professional documents.
The semester Portuguese language courses are offered by PUC-Rio at the following levels:
- Level I – BEGINNER Portuguese as a Second Language
- Level II – INTERMEDIATE I Portuguese as a Second Language
