What You Need to Know
The academic palette covers a breadth of fields taught in both Spanish and English: Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Management and International Business, Spanish Language and Literature, and Women's Studies. Advanced Spanish language students may also take courses at the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid.
Course-related field study brings you to Roman ruins, medieval villages, subterranean caves, and the majestic mountains of the north—while your Spanish home-stay will further deepen your personal and academic experience. You can even gain valuable professional experience with one of our many internship opportunities.
Campus & Community Engagement
Located in the vibrant heart of the city, the venerable Instituto Internacional is the home of SU Madrid. Exciting courses, taught in both Spanish and English, give students an intellectual understanding of Spain and Spanish culture.
During the day, students participate in internships or service learning placements, getting to know children at schools and churches or taking that little almuerzo with office colleagues at 11 o’clock on the dot. In the evening, students have a choice of events that SU Madrid staff arrange with Spanish students who are always eager to share coffee at a study break or show you the best places to go in Madrid.
