Description

The BIC semester program offers students worldwide the chance to become members of our student body, earn college credits for courses taught in English, participate in all sorts of activities and excursions and, last but certainly not least, improve their Spanish by leaps and bounds with our Intensive Spanish Language Courses.

As a Semester Abroad students you will likely take an Intensive Spanish Course along with three or four electives, for a total of between 12 and 15 credits per semester. All courses, whether electives or language intensives, are taught by highly experienced local and international professors holding PhDs in their fields of expertise or Masters Degrees in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language. They are experts in their respective fields and serve as excellent sources of information for our international students.

Our Intensive Spanish Course is available at several levels, ranging from Beginner (A1) to Proficient (C2). They use a communicative approach and employ a wide range of materials and techniques while covering all of the essentials: grammar and vocabulary, reading and writing, speaking and listening, etc. These courses are taught in Spanish. Our electives, however, are mostly taught in English and cover a range of topics, including Culture, International Business, History, Art and more.
