Study Abroad in Spain
Five cities, 30+ programs, and the unmatched flexibility of our Global Institute.
The story of Spain includes empire, conquistadors, inquisition – and celebrated figures like Velázquez, Goya, Picasso, Dalí, Almodóvar, and Penelope Cruz. It has been written by Iberians, Celts, Greeks, Phoenicians, Romans, Goths, Moors, Jews, Muslims, and Christians. And now it’s your turn to live and write your own chapter in Spain, with CIEE.
Study for a summer, semester, or year, exploring liberal arts and language, architecture, business, new media, education, and more. Choose the city that most intrigues you most. Maybe it’s Seville, full of spectacle and spirit. Or Madrid, capital of galácticos and gatos – and home to a CIEE Global Institute, where you can link study abroad in two additional cities, all in the same semester. You might also choose the sun-drenched Mediterranean citadel of Barcelona. Palma de Mallorca, beloved pearl of the Balearic Islands. Or Alicante, a dazzling port city brimming with Medieval history and cosmopolitan flare.
In all of these locations, CIEE Spain gives you access to homestays; internships; volunteering opportunities; direct enrollment options; and cultural clubs, activities, and excursions that provide a uniquely immersive international experience. Come write your story of Spain with us.
