Summer Term in Córdoba, Argentina
Providing unique learning experiences for North-American university students since 1969
Program Information
The Córdoba Summer Term consists of a four-week Intensive Language and Culture session and is located at Argentina’s oldest university, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC). During this time, you take an intensive language and culture course, while discovering the culture and people of Argentina. Advanced students may also choose to participate in an internship or service learning opportunity during their summer term.

Meet your Resident Director
This is a great moment to live an experience that you will keep in your heart, throughout your personal and academic life. I expect that students will open their minds and hearts to other forms of knowledge. While excellent academics is the main reason to study at Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, the richest aspect of your experience will be getting to know another culture – which I’m sure you will fall in love with!
