Program Overview

Program Description:

Students attending the Instituto Químico de Sarrià (IQS) Barcelona program with SAI have the opportunity to expand their knowledge and broaden their horizons in one of Europe's most fascinating cities. SAI students immerse themselves in a semester of specialized academic work at IQS, focusing on either Management or Engineering. Building customized schedules based upon pre-determined sets of classes, or “itineraries,” students earn between 12 – 15 credits per semester.

SAI oversees and coordinates all aspects of student enrollment, including application processing, course selection and credit, visa advising, housing, student health insurance, transcripts and cell phone service. In addition, SAI provides comprehensive student services, beginning with pre-departure and leading to our on-site orientation.

IQS is a prestigious Jesuit institution in Barcelona and a part of the 11 member institution Universitat Ramon Llull (URL). IQS offers more than a century of experience in providing a holistic approach to education for Spanish and international students. The University consists of two divisions: the IQS School of Engineering and the IQS School of Management (AACSB accredited). IQS and its University network enjoys a reputation for academic excellence and social commitment that ensures a well-rounded and challenging experience for its students. Courses are taught in English and class sizes are small, allowing maximum access to IQS's world-class faculty.

Setting Description:

IQS is committed to helping students develop the personal, professional, and academic skills necessary to become ethical leaders and engaged citizens in the 21st Century. In addition to having an excellent academic reputation, IQS enjoys strong relationships with Spain’s scientific and business communities. These collaborations keep the school adaptable and responsive to the constantly evolving needs of the broader society. The school is also a hub for research and innovation across a range of academic disciplines, from Biotechnology to Financial Management.
