Highlights

Study in the birthplace of Mozart, one of the most elegant and interesting cities in Europe. The city was granted UNESCO World Heritage status in recognition of its unique character and architecture. Located north of the Alps, Salzburg's lush meadows, lakes and mountains call you outdoors.

Earn up to 17 credits at the University of Salzburg. Begin or advance your German language skills with a 2-week orientation course taught at four different levels. Continue your studies with an intensive curriculum of German language or choose from a wide range of courses in English or German.

Immerse yourself in the charm of this peaceful city during local activities such as taking a horse drawn sleigh ride to an alpine lodge and weekly discussions with native Austrians at the local coffee shop.

Salzburg's central location in Europe gives you easy access to other parts of the continent and you'll get a taste of this on included excursions to Innsbruck, Vienna and Munich. Travel on the Optional AIFS Flight Package and begin your trip with a 3-day excursion to London, England en route to Salzburg.
