Description

Spend a semester learning from some of the best faculty in Barcelona. On Semester at Barcelona International College, you'll soak up all that this cultural hub of the Mediterranean has to offer both inside and outside the classroom. Start getting excited about:

* The most pristine white-sand beaches in Western Europe - Barcelona enjoys a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and hot summers. Any time of the year is perfect for a visit to the beach!

* Life in the cultural capital of the Mediterranean - Barcelona is home to more World Heritage sites than any other city in Europe. You will witness 2,000 years of architectural and cultural splendor. The numerous museums, churches, cathedrals, concert halls, the modern art of Joan Miro, Pablo Picasso, and the influential architecture of Antoni Gaudi and Mies van der Rohe make Barcelona an aesthetically appealing destination for visitors from all over the world.

This program is perfect for anyone, because the Spanish-language classes are offered for speakers of all levels and are tailored to meet your needs.
