Study Abroad in Buenos Aires
Advanced Spanish Immersion Program

Why Buenos Aires?
Poised between the sweeping Río de la Plata and the legendary pampas, Buenos Aires and its metro area is home to one-third of Argentina's population of 38 million people, making it a hub of public debate, political action, and reform movements.

Study abroad in Buenos Aires and explore the capital city's wide avenues, sprawling parks, and elegant 19th century Parisian-style architecture. Or get another view of the city on its narrow, crowded side streets, where graffiti and political posters show the grit of a modern metropolis and where soulful strains of tango still ring through the air.

The IES Abroad Buenos Aires Advanced Spanish Immersion Program
This program is designed to advance your studies in the Spanish language and learn more about Argentinian culture. IES Abroad area studies courses are offered in Spanish in a wide range of disciplines, including Anthropology, Business, Film Studies, History, Latin America Studies, Literature, Political Science, Sociology, and Theater. IES Abroad courses are taught by local university faculty at the IES Abroad Center.
