Description

Interested in studying abroad in Spain? Join us for this upcoming info session about the Spain: Comparative Perspectives on Education program! Meet your faculty director and learn about courses, excursions, funding options and more! 

About the program:

OURENSE, SPAIN - This program will take place in Ourense, which is in the Region of Galicia, in Northwest Spain, 40 min away by train  rom Santiago de Compostela, the capital of Galicia, and 2 hours from Porto Portugal. Schools in this region are becoming more and more multicultural, and in response, education has become trilingual: the subjects are taught in Galego (Galician), Spanish and English. By working in local classrooms, students will be able to compare the current education systems in the U.S. and Spain and learn the foundations of both systems. Field trips and home stays with local families will further allow students to be immersed in Spanish culture.
