¡Bienvenidos a España!
Spain is one of the most popular study abroad destinations. The country is geographically and culturally diverse, with storied stone castles, aqueducts, ancient ruins, snowcapped mountains, vast monuments, and sophisticated cities. From the cosmopolitan coastal city of Barcelona to the more traditional Sevilla in the south, you can discover the multifaceted culture of Spain while studying. Food is the most important pillar of Spanish society, so be prepared to enjoy a good paella, seafood, or jámon, and eat hundreds of tapas! In the cradle of Castellano, you will learn Miguel de Cervantes’ language and bring a new facet to your Spanish proficiency. Alcoy is a small town in the Valencia province nicely situated in an inland valley roughly 20 km from the Costa Blanca.
The Alcoy Program is offered during the Spring semester only and is best suited for Computer Science and Engineering students with at least a low-intermediate level of Spanish proficiency. Courses are conducted through the Polytechnic University of Valencia in Alcoy. A majority of classes are taught in English or are “English-friendly."
