Study Abroad Opportunities

Texas Tech University is offering a unique opportunity for students to live, learn, travel and enjoy the life, culture, and Spanish language during long semesters, or during the summer program, in Sevilla. Spanish course credit may be earned at the lower-level (first and second year completing the language requirement) and upper level (third and fourth year). The program is directed and the courses are taught by Texas Tech University Spanish professors.

The program is based in Sevilla, España, a beautiful city in Andalucía in southern Spain. It is a vibrant, dynamic city with many things to see and do. The location of Sevilla provides convenient access for our excursions to Granada, Cordoba, Madrid, Toledo and the beaches of Andalucía.  All students will be housed in Sevilla with approved Spanish families. Families are carefully selected and screened so as to provide students with a positive living and cultural experience.
