Program Overview

Program Description:

CLUC offers the ideal place for students to experience a foreign culture. Students from academic institutions across the United States, as well as South America, Europe, and Asia come to CLUC for a semester or yearlong stay. Located in Buenos Aires, one of the largest and most cosmopolitan cities in South America, Lincoln immerses students in South American culture—with all its native and European influences. CLUC is a center of Universidad Nacional San Martin which offers the only degree in Argentina in English. Study Abroad students are integrated into the wider student body at CLUC which includes degree and non-degree students from all over the world.

Study Abroad students mix classes in English with Spanish language and literature classes. In this way, they learn Spanish and expand their cultural experience, while continuing to take courses that earn them credit in their programs back home. The program also includes exploring Argentine gastronomy, live tango music, dancing and lessons, visits to classic and modern museums, a trip across the Rio de la Plata to Colonia, Uruguay, and an asado (BBQ) at the Estancia Los Talas, built in 1824 and which holds one of the most important collections of books and manuscripts in South America.

CLUC distinguishes itself from other Study Abroad Programs by offering university level courses in both English and Spanish. CLUC Study Abroad students can experience a new culture and language, while still taking a variety of courses that will earn them credit in their programs back home.
