The Hispanic Studies program is appropriate for advanced students who wish to complement their study of the Spanish language with content courses in culture, history, economics, politics, art history, etc. The program offers a wide variety of subjects taught by expert faculty members from the University of Granada.

Students in the Hispanic Studies program may complete an internship at a local company, educational institution or volunteering organization. Students should check with their home universities regarding whether or not they can earn credit for this internship course.

Students in the Hispanic Studies program may also enrol in one or two classes at the other Schools of the University of Granada.
