Course recommendations

I took all of my course at the actually university. I took two courses under Cursos para extranjeros which is the closest you will get to taking courses with regular spanish students if your spanish level isnt high enough. you take these courses with other americans and its in spanish taught by professors from the univeristy. I also enrolled in 2 regualr university courses with spanish students. If your level of spanish is very advanced they are very worthyour time. be prepared to do no work all semester and then study like hell to take exams. The classes arent hard as most people said. You just need to keep on top of independant reading. I did all the reading int eh last month of school i was ok.

Course recommendations

Courses through the CIEE Liberal Arts track were small classes with all American students. I was hoping to meet Spanish students through my classes, but I ended up meeting them through different settings so that was okay, although I think people would have benefited from integrated classes if possible. All of the courses were taught completely in Spanish (many of the teachers knew very little English), and all essay exams and papers were in Spanish. The classes developed my reading and writing skills.

Group projects would have been beneficial because they would have given us a chance to speak more in class (not simply to discuss and ask questions, but to present a project in a formal setting).

Course recommendations

Take general courses in the university as opposed to the "Cursos para Extranjeros" program that the university provides. In the general courses, you'll have more of a choice and be able to meet local and international students. Keep in mind though that the majority of university courses last for a year rather than a semester.

Personal comments

The "Cursos para Extranjeros" should challenge American student more. The program should also separate students out based on language level -- you had students in your class with 1-2 years of Spanish and others with near fluency. I would also suggest requiring students to take grammar and translation courses.

Course recommendations

Take courses that interest you, don't worry about courses that directly follow your major. After all, the main point of going abroad is to become fluent and develop your personal goals and interests. In short, experiment and have fun, but at the same time be sure to take the opportunity and experience seriously.

More dedication and particpation by Spanish students. I wouldn't bet on this happening any time soon though, as their system is very different from the elite competition and discpline found at top US universities.

The courses are very much lecture and exam oriented. Grades are solely based on your performance on the exams.

Try visiting the International Student Affairs office on the Palos de la Frontera side of the building to sign-up for a language exchange with another student. Another option for you is visiting the Foreign Languages department on la Reina Mercedes to meet students interested your language(s)/culture(s).

treat the exchange students equally with respect to non-exchange students. this year was by far the easiest year i have ever had.i would have liked it to be a little more intense.

REVIEWS BY INTERNS AT Universidad de Sevilla

Universidad pública de calidad

Es una universidad dinámica y bastante moderna

Experiencia en Skylife

Muy contenta con todo, tanto con el ambiente de trabajo como con las funciones a realizar

Practicas de laboratorios, Laboratios vital. Sevilla

Las practicas se basaban en la realizacion medios de cultivo , resiembra y ayudar a archivar datos. En menor medida se realizo algo de proceso de analisis de aguas y comidas, pero siempre mas con apoyo a los tecnicos ( principalmente rotular y esterilizar los filtros) pero poco mas. El equipo es simpatico y siempre ayudan, aunque la responsable de practicas de medios, es muy exigente pero apenas enseña , en mayor medida se aprende de otros que esten realizando practicas.

Positiva

Gran empresa

Muy buena experiencia

Pude acceder a todas las instalaciones y hacer practicamente de todo, estoy realmente agradecido. Sobre todo enfocado en el ámbito de la recepción y la atención telefónica. En los tiempos muertos formalizaba las reservas.

Increible

Mi experiencia fue inmejorable. Desde el primer momento me sentí completamente integrada y a gusto tanto como con el equipo docente como con los alumnos. Me dejaron realizar multitud de propuestas, actividades y unidades didácticas, me valoraron muy positivamente y los alumnos disfrutaron mucho, al igual que yo. Por otra parte, pude poner todo lo aprendido en los anteriores años de carreta todo lo estudiado y, además, aprender ora infinidad de cosas que no puedes aprender en un cuadro méramente teórico.

ABOUT

El embrión de la actual Universidad de Sevilla fue el Colegio de Santa María de Jesús, fundado por el Arcediano Maese Rodrigo Fernández de Santaella en las postrimerías del s. XV. Ya en el siglo XVI (1505), una bula del Papa Julio II otorga al Colegio la facultad de conferir grados en Teología, Filosofía, Derecho, Medicina y Artes; y en 1551 el propio Concejo de la ciudad traspasa a la fundación de Maese Rodrigo, la Real provisión que concedía un Estudio General, por lo que aquélla pasó a ser oficialmente la Universidad, gozando de todos los privilegios de las demás Universidades del Reino. De los Estatutos de 1621 se desprende que la Universidad de Sevilla se componía de cuatro Facultades: Teología, Canones y Leyes, Medicina y Artes, y otorgaba los grados de Bachiller, Licenciado y Doctor en todas las Facultades, junto con el de Maestro por la Facultad de Artes.
