Study at University of Virginia Hispanic Studies Program

The UM partnership with UVA provides students the opportunity to take Spanish language and culture courses abroad. The program also facilitates relationships with native Spanish speakers through Intercambio language partners.

A coastal city of more than 800,000 on the Mediterranean, Valencia is surrounded by immaculate beaches and filled with monuments testifying to its Roman, Visigoth, and Arab ancestry. The mild climate and dynamic cultural activities attract Europeans and students alike.
