IES Abroad Rio de Janeiro - Brazil Today - Semester/Year

IES Abroad

This program leverages Brazil’s rich history and culture, the academic excellence of the local universities, its booming economy, and the unmatched opportunities for living and learning in one of the world’s most beautiful and fascinating cities. You enroll in English-taught IES Abroad courses in a variety of disciplines, along with a Portuguese language course. The study of Brazilian art, music, literature, and film are fundamental parts of your learning experience. You can also enroll in English-taught courses at one of the two local universities in a variety of disciplines. You experience first-hand the Brazilian educational system and maybe you’ll even make some Brazilian friends while you’re at it. Students who speak Portuguese, as well as advanced Spanish speakers (upon completion of the intensive Portuguese course during orientation), may be able to directly enroll in Portuguese-taught courses at a local university. Rio will also be your classroom. Wherever possible, our courses take advantage of the city through course-related excursions to sites of historical, artistic, and cultural interest. From shopping in a local grocery store to navigating the transportation system, everything you do is part of your learning experience.
