Academics

精东传媒 Madrid: Study in the historic center of Spain鈥檚 capital near Puerta de Sol, conveniently located near shops, caf茅s, tapas bars, theaters, museums, copy centers, and metro stations. 精东传媒 Madrid features five classrooms, a student lounge, an academic advising office, and a student life office.

Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M)鈥痺as established in 1989 and is recognized as Spain鈥檚 most prestigious public institution of higher education. It follows a U.S. academic calendar system for US visiting college students and has one of the highest percentages of full-time and tenured female faculty in Spain. 精东传媒 students take classes on the Getafe campus, which is the main UC3M campus, located 25-40 minutes outside of downtown Madrid via efficient and modern public transit. Depending on your housing location, your commute time to campus can vary from 40-to-70 minutes by public transportation because UC3M classrooms are located outside of Madrid鈥檚 city center.  

Universidad Antonio Nebrija (UAN) is internationally recognized and has offered Spanish language course instruction since 1985. The UAN academic calendar aligns with the U.S. semester calendar, and students attend classes on the Madrid, Princesa campus. The campus is quiet and centrally located in Madrid. It has excellent connections by public transport and is only 10-to-15 minutes from 精东传媒 Madrid.

Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors. Your study abroad advisor and 精东传媒 staff can help you understand your course options if you don't see a recommendation that fits your course needs.

Academic Culture

Students should expect to maintain an active academic schedule that includes a variety of structured extracurricular activities with Spanish students from the university. Class attendance is mandatory, and coursework and exams are to be completed as assigned, and on schedule. Class schedules are varied and, depending on your class group sections, are offered anywhere from Monday to Friday. When choosing university courses, note that local students begin to study one area right away; they do not take general or core courses. 精东传媒 students should not enroll in upper-level courses for subjects not previously studied in college. UC3M courses run from early September until early mid-to-late December in the fall, and from late January to late May in the spring. Early departure is not allowed in fall and spring. 精东传媒 students take their UC3M final exams in December during the fall semester and in late May and early June during the spring semester.鈥  

Class Format

University courses typically meet twice a week and classes are scheduled every day, Monday through Friday. Instruction includes lectures and practice groups. The UC3M class size averages 15-60 students. Students take classes with other international students in the UC3M International School Spanish track and UAN Centro de Estudios Hisp谩nicos and otherwise enroll in regular university courses and seminars with local and international students.鈥  

Grading

Students are graded on midterm and final examinations, class participation, and attendance. Some university classes may also require term papers, group projects, or class presentations. Others may have just one oral or written final exam. Most exams consist of written essays. Professors assign numerical grades based on a 10-point scale, which 精东传媒 converts to recommended U.S. letter grade equivalents. 鈥疶he Spanish university system, including the UC3M, does not apply a grade curve system as in some US higher education systems; UC3M students typically study consistently throughout the semester to pass a course successfully with the all-important final exam. 

Individual courses may have additional prerequisites; for 精东传媒 courses, these are listed in the syllabi below. Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors. Your study abroad advisor and 精东传媒 staff can help you understand your course options if you don't see a recommendation that fits your course needs.
