Explore your field of research in-depth through this exciting study abroad research program in Spain that fits in with your program of study at home. This strong curriculum will keep you in line with your graduation while developing impressive skills and experience for your resume.
When I introduce myself and they ask what I did over the summer and I say that I did research in Spain, they’re really taken aback by the fact that I’ve already done research at such a young age. And when they hear that I’ve done it abroad, they always tell me that this will really help and that jobs look for that. ”
