Study Abroad with Georgetown Faculty!

Spanish with Dr. Abraham Prades (Summer 2025)

The KIIS Spain I program offers students a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the Spanish language, culture, and history while studying advanced Spanish courses in one of the country’s most charming and historic cities: Segovia. To enhance the cultural experience, students will live with local host families, which provides them with an environment that will improve their language skills, immersing themselves in daily Spanish life and gain a deeper understanding of the local culture.

Segovia offers a weekly open-air market, picturesque plazas, cafes, and frequent musical and artistic events that serve as an ideal backdrop for cultural immersion. In Segovia, students can explore stunning landmarks, such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site Roman aqueduct, the Alcázar, and the Gothic Cathedral. The program includes excursions and field trips to important historical and cultural sites in and around Segovia. The city’s proximity to Madrid, with its vast cultural offerings, makes this location ideal for experiencing multiple dimensions of Spanish life.
  • SPAN 105 - Introduction to Hispanic Culture: This course, taught in English, is designed to expose students to Spanish history, art, culture, and contemporary issues in Spain. Students will develop a critical understanding of Spain’s past and how it has shaped the present. The focus of this course is to foster a greater appreciation of the evolution of Spain as a country through texts, literature, film, art, architecture, and other media. Students enrolling in SPAN 105 must also enroll in one further Spanish course offering.
