Study Abroad
Study abroad is a crucial component and integral part of our curriculum. We encourage all students, especially majors and minors, to study in a Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking country. Not only will your language skills significantly improve, you will acquire a firsthand knowledge of different cultures and perspectives.
We strongly recommend completing your language requirement at CC before studying abroad on a non-CC program.
The faculty in the Spanish and Portuguese Department direct three study abroad programs:
- CC in Latin America: Offered each Fall semester (courses vary each year). Courses taught in Spanish at the 300-level and in Portuguese. Interdisciplinary program, taught by faculty from the Spanish and Portuguese Department and from other departments.
- CC Summer in Spain: Offered each Summer. Six-week, two block study abroad program in Spain. Three levels of Spanish: elementary, intermediate, and advanced (305&306).
- CC in Brazil: [Currently suspended]. Offered in Summer every other year (1.5-2 blocks) or as a one-block program during the academic year. The program generally offers two levels of language and culture study. No previous knowledge of Portuguese necessary.
Our study abroad courses fulfill many General Education requirements (language study and more) as well as minor and major requirements. Please consult descriptions for each program for specific information.
