For students with a focus on media and communication studies, this program is for you! CEA CAPA has partnered with EUSA University Center, an institution specialized in the field of communication, to offer a wide variety of courses in the fields of communication, media studies, and tourism management, as well as a range of electives in subjects like business, journalism, culture, and more. Courses are taught in English or Spanish; no Spanish language experience is necessary. Taking courses at the CEA CAPA Seville Center and our partner, EUSA University Center, allow you the flexibility to tailor your learning experience. Those attending EUSA are integrated into regular classes with local Spanish and other international students.
A private university located in the heart of Seville, EUSA University Center boasts one of Europe’s most modern educational settings. Take courses side-by-side with Spanish and other international students for a truly integrated experience.

The Center is conveniently located in the center of the city, near Seville’s stunning la Giralda cathedral.
When in Seville, live as the locals do! Choose CEA CAPA housing or arrange your own independent housing. CEA CAPA housing assignments are based on availability and confirmation date; we make every effort to match your housing requests, but we can’t guarantee housing preferences.
Program Structure
You'll enroll in 1 core course and 1-3 courses at the CEA CAPA Seville Center, and 1-2 courses at our partner, the EUSA University Center. CEA CAPA courses meet for 45 contact hours/3 credits. EUSA courses meet for 45-60 contact hours/3 credits. You may earn up to 15 credits (up to 225 contact hours).
CEA CAPA classes meet for 3 hours per week on Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday; this schedule may vary at EUSA. Required field trips and site visits may be scheduled for Fridays.
Prior to departure, you will select your preferred courses and take a language placement exam. Your final language level may be adjusted on-site. You will be enrolled into courses based on their availability. It is in your best interest to have multiple alternative courses approved by your home university prior to your departure due to course availabilities. If you choose to take a Spanish language or elective course, to ensure that you receive credit for the language level you place into, have your home university pre-approve courses at several levels before you leave for Spain. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.

Córdoba

Once one of Europe’s most important capitals, the city has long been a melting pot of cultural influences where Muslims, Christians, and Jews co-existed peacefully. This small Andalusian city is full of iconic monuments, like the Mezquita, the Great Mosque of Córdoba, and the old Jewish quarter, home to the 1315 synagogue (one of only three left in Spain.) Córdoba has produced many influential philosophers, scientists, and artists, as well as a lively tradition of flamenco dancing.
