We have dedicated an entire section to these courses, which are aimed at students who want to improve their Spanish during short stays in Spain before going on to study a degree in Spanish but in a different speciality.

STUDYING SPANISH AT A SPANISH UNIVERSITY

If you want to improve your Spanish more extensively, you can study Spanish in Spain at university. This allows you to obtain ECTS credits (university credits). These are not degree-level studies and the duration is considerably shorter (generally one semester or even one year) than a Grado university course (4 years). But it does allow you to learn Spanish in a university environment and to have a choice of subjects that goes beyond pure language learning. It’s total cultural immersion.

Depending on your initial level, you can tackle political or cultural themes, or focus on Spanish for the world of health, Spanish for the world of business, etc. And you can also work in more detail on your writing skills or your Spanish grammar.

Studying Spanish at a university in Spain means making the choice to study at a recognised institution whose teachers are amply qualified to help you in your personal project to learn Spanish in Spain. Please note, however, that although these programmes are taught at universities in Spain, they do not give you an official diploma. They can, however, prepare you to take the official DELE and SIELE exams. You can find more information about these courses at this link.

TAKE A UNIVERSITY DEGREE (GRADO) IN TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETING

If you’re interested in the world of modern languages, you can make a career out of it by enrolling on a degree course in translation/interpreting or modern languages. Spanish is the language of instruction, so a good grounding in the language is often a prerequisite. The aim is no longer to learn Spanish alone, but to take an official university course in modern languages, in which Spanish must be well mastered.

Some universities allow international students to study with English as their basic language (in which case an excellent level of English is required) or adapt the study plan to the student’s level of Spanish.

You can choose to study several languages or focus exclusively on Spanish. We will advise you on the best solutions for your needs and profile.

There are many advantages to studying a language course in Spain. Not only will you significantly improve your command of Spanish, but you’ll also have the opportunity to learn other languages (English, German, Chinese, etc.).
