Description

Earn your Master's or Graduate degrees in Argentina! Mente Argentina's Master's and Graduate Degrees Program seeks to provide participants the tools to enjoy a comprehensive international educational experience.

Depending on your area of interest and the degree you would like to obtain, our program coordinators will help you choose the university that is right for your needs. We will also arrange your accommodations in Buenos Aires during the first two, four or six months of your studies, according to the program you choose.

The program is divided in two stages:

* First stage (Pre-Enrollment):
During the first stage of this program, the Director of Educational Programs will meet with you to discuss the benefits and distinguishing features of each university.
Each Argentine university specializes in different courses of study; there is a university famous for its law courses, and there is another university known for its graduate level courses in technology. During this time, you will participate in advising sessions to ensure that your interests and needs align with what our universities offer.

* Second stage (Enrollment and Welcome):
During this second stage of the program, Mente Argentina will enroll you in your university. Mente Argentina will submit all of the necessary paperwork and handle correspondence with the administration. During this stage we will also confirm the accommodations you have selected.

Mente Argentina offers you the opportunity to do your graduate or master's courses in Argentina through the numerous agreements and connections we have with some of the most well respected universities in the country.

* Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA) - a public university.
* Universidad Argentina de la Empresa (U.A.D.E) - a private university.
* Instituto Tecnologico de Buenos Aires (I.T.B.A) - a private university.
* Universidad de Belgrano (U.B) - a private university.

Argentina, particularly the city of Buenos Aires, is known for its well respected universities and academic institutions.

In the last few years, especially as the Argentine peso has experienced some devaluation, more foreign students have enrolled on Argentine universities than ever before. Many come to start or continue their university studies at a graduate or undergraduate level. While taking advantage of the favorable exchange rate, they are able to benefit from the amazing opportunities the Argentine education system has to offer.

* You can combine this program with Spanish lessons! (Optional)
