Economics + Culture, Spring 2018, Newsletter III
The semester has come to its end. It is time for students to bid farewell to Barcelona and be conscious about their experience here. Aside from the more personal experiences they may have had, it must not be forgotten that this study abroad program is mainly an academic one. That's why some students wanted to take part in this newsletter by talking about their favorite courses in Barcelona, either at CIEE or at our host institution, Universitat Pompeu Fabra.
Check them out in the following videos:
YVONNE, FROM COLGATE UNIVERSITY

SHAHNOOR, FROM CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY

On the other hand, as an example of what students can give back to the city while abroad, here we see Peter (College of William and Mary), Justin (George Washington University) and Yvonne (Colgate University). They participated as volunteers in the Barcelona Marathon, clearly showing that, besides academics, studying abroad can provide a great opportunity to grow as a person.
