Languages, Literatures and International Studies

Are you studying Spanish and will have completed SN 202 or above by the end of this school year? Consider our Faculty-Led Study Abroad Program in Salamanca, Spain for Summer 2024! Salamanca is full of cultural activities, restaurants, museums, churches, and other neat things to see and do.

Students have three hours per day of small-group Spanish language classes, and an hour of class per day with an NMU Spanish professor -- all at the renowned Universidad de Salamanca, founded in 1218.

Afternoons and evenings are mostly free for exploring the city, hanging out with friends, drinking café con leche and enjoying the atmosphere. Former Salamanca FLSA participants have noted this experience to be at the top of their list of their undergraduate adventures here at Northern!

So ... have we piqued your curiosity? Join us for one of our three information sessions at 6:00 in 141 Whitman Hall.
