Program Description:
Chilean Universities, Santiago
IFSA - CHILEAN UNIVERSITIES PROGRAM, SANTIAGO
Geotag  Santiago, Chile

WHY STUDY IN SANTIAGO?
Santiago is the economic, political, and cultural heart of Chile and therefore an ideal location for a study abroad experience. The city enjoys modern infrastructure, diverse architecture, green parks, and a delightful Mediterranean climate. Its central location provides opportunities for travel throughout Chile and Latin America, while its wide range of cultural and entertainment options will make you want to stay in the city.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Propel yourself beyond your peers with a resume-enhancing internship or directed research as part of your study abroad program. Located in foothills of Andes Mountains, this program places you directly in the Chilean capital city of Santiago and invites you to join other advocates and leaders. Live a cosmopolitan, urban lifestyle as you put your penchant for social justice, politics, and law to work internationally in this emerging Latin American market. 

You may select from classes at two of Latin America’s top universities: Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile and Universidad de Chile. This program is ideal for students majoring in pre-law, political science, international relations, business majors, and more.

We offer semester study on the Chilean Universities Program in Santiago, where you’ll take classes alongside local students at two different universities. To complement your learning, we offer IFSA elective classes specially designed to increase your language skills and facilitate engagement in the local community. These classes, taught in Spanish by local professors, are intended to provide you with an understanding of the events and issues that make Chile what it is today.
  • Advanced Spanish I or Advanced Spanish II
  • Coming Fall 2022 - Directed Research
  • Exploring Community & Culture in a Global Cohort
  • International Internship Seminar
