Academics & Program

Located in gorgeous Seville, Spain, this program draws upon the academic resources of both the International College of Seville (ICS) and the University of Seville, institutions which border a beautiful park near the center of the city and provide easy access to Seville's many cultural and historical attractions.

ICS, founded in 1982, is a private educational institution housed in a three-story Andalucivilla complete with classrooms, administrative offices, study areas, and a library. Anchored in the historic El Porvenir district, the ICS campus captures the authenic soul of Seville. It is one of the few remaining original estates of its kind and it preserves the archittectural charm of the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition. Once inside, students trade the Andalusian heat for the cool feel of hand-painted tiels, a bright courtyard and comfortable classrooms read of your daily classes. The ICS is literally a stones throw from the iconic Plaza de Espana, one of the most breathtaking building you will ever see and the building sits in the middle of a gorgeous park, which makes lunch in the park a whole new experience. 

ICS’s academic partner, the University of Seville, dates back to the 16th century and is recognized as one of Spain’s top-ranked universities. Located in the heart of downtown Seville, near the Guadalquivir River, the university occupies a remarkable historic building that once served as a tobacco factory. Today, this beautifully renovated landmark blends centuries of history with modern academic life, creating an atmosphere that feels more like stepping into a magnificent museum than a university campus.

With a student population of more than 70,000, the University of Seville is a vibrant center of learning, culture, and discovery. Its Schools of Geography and History, Philology, and Law offer students the opportunity to study in an inspiring setting where Spain’s rich cultural heritage meets contemporary university life.

ICS students can expand their academic experience by enrolling in English-taught courses at EUSA University. EUSA offers a diverse selection of courses in Communications, Journalism, Advertising, Marketing, Management, Tourism, and Public Relations, giving students the opportunity to explore subjects that complement their academic interests while studying abroad. Located just a five-minute walk from ICS, EUSA provides an excellent opportunity to learn alongside Spanish and international students in a dynamic, multicultural environment.  Please note that enrolling in EUSA courses requires an additional fee beyond the standard program cost.
