Salud en Sevilla

Program Overview

Immerse yourself in the life of Seville, a city that has served as a cultural axis between the New World and Europe for centuries. Seville is a beautiful place whose history sits next to a vibrant present-day culture.

In order to gain first-hand experience and cultural appreciation, trips and visits during the program will include:

  • healthcare facilities
  • cultural sites within Seville

Students will conduct a “disease outbreak investigation,” as well as live with Spanish families, giving them the opportunity to learn more about Spanish language and culture outside of the classroom.
