Description

The Broad Curriculum program in Valencia, Spain gives students the chance to obtain credits in general requirements and elective courses while experiencing Valencia, surrounding areas of Spain, and neighboring European countries. Due to our new affiliation with the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia and the Universidad Catolica de Valencia, students can enhance their study experience by taking business, math, and science courses at these facilities while in Spain with Florida State. Please contact our office for more information.

When participating in the Valencia, Spain Broad Curriculum program, students experience both local and more distant travel opportunities tied to critical means of academic study. Most courses allow a three-day weekend for explorations of the nearby ancient Roman city of Sagunto or castle towns such as Xátiva. Each term includes a very complete cultural program with at least one onsite activity per week. Friday trips include visits to nearby ancient cities or castle towns, sailing, and mountain excursions. Students and faculty also spend three to four days in Madrid and/or Barcelona, Andalucia, Pyrenees Mountains or another region of Spain enjoying comfortable accommodations and visiting a wealth of important sites. During the fall and spring terms, students have a 10-day term break for extended personal travel.
