"If you were to visit just one city
in Spain, it should be Granada"
ERNEST HEMINGWAY
Granada The city of
has become one of the most attractive destinations for
international students of Spanish from all over the world. With a welcoming and safe environment, a fascinating
history, a singular geographical location halfway between the snows of Sierra Nevada and the subtropical
Mediterranean shore, and a prestigious university of about 70,000 students, Granada offers the perfect conditions
for language learning.
While Granada offers the ideal backdrop, the University of Granada's Centro de Lenguas Modernas, which over
the years has gained an international reputation for teaching Spanish language and culture, provides the ideal
academic environment.
The learning experience is further enhanced by guided walking tours and visits to monuments throughout the
city led by faculty members, outdoor activities that take advantage of Granada's spectacular natural surroundings,
and group excursions to other picturesque cities in Andalucia.
It takes no time at all for a visiting student to realize that contact with Granada's history and culture is not limited
to the formal learning in the classroom. There is constant and total immersion. The little squares, narrow streets,
fountains, gardens and architecture evoke memories of times long-gone, from the Medieval Granada of the
Moors and Christians to the Romantic times of Washington Irving.
At the same time, Granada is a bustling, modern city with little shops and large shopping centres, bars and
terraces full of people, day and night, socializing and enjoying tapas, small samples of the rich and varied Spanish
cuisine.

level test which means that anyone arriving at CLM at the beginning of a course can join a CILE at their
corresponding level. For courses that begin halfway through the month, we can only guarantee the levels that
are underway and recommend absolute beginners to start at the beginning of the month. It is also possible to
follow these courses for a number of months with the guarantee that a group will exist at every level A1 to C1.
Assessment will be on a continuous basis and progress will also be evaluated in the end-of-course exam.
From October to December and from February to May, students who have passed level B1.1 Spanish (CLM- 4
Intermediate) can enrol in individual subjects from the Spanish Language and Culture Course and those who
have passed level B2.1 (CLM - 6 Advanced) can enrol in individual subjects from the Hispanic Studies Course.

HISPANIC STUDIES COURSE (CEH)
The Hispanic Studies Course is aimed at students and professionals who wish to acquire a deeper knowledge

University of Granada.
Students must already have a high command of Spanish to be able to follow these subjects (i.e. have passed
level B2.1 - CLM - 6 Advanced). For this reason, CLM always recommends students to take an Intensive Spanish
Language Course (CILE) before beginning the Hispanic Studies Course.
The CEH Course is taught in two periods - from October to December (Fall) and from February to May (Spring).
Students can choose the first period, the second period or both (the Complete Hispanic Studies Course).
Students in this course can choose four or five subjects offered by CLM for each period. One of these subjects
may be a Modern Language Course.
Each subject in the Hispanic Studies Course has 45 teaching hours and a regular weekly timetable in line with
the general schedule programmed by CLM. Students who successfully complete both periods (10 subjects) are
entitled to receive the Diploma in Hispanic Studies.FALL SUBJECTS SPRING SUBJECTS
