About Program

Our Semester + Internship Program at the Barcelona SAE Academic Study Center (SIS) provides students with the opportunity to take courses in English and/or Spanish that can count towards your major, minor or general education requirements.

Class sizes at SIS are small to provide a personalized experience which allows for individual participation and team projects. Each course includes various excursions that use the city of Barcelona as a classroom.

Students can take 9 credits at SIS and complete a 3 credit immersive internship in their field of study. Internship credits will be awarded through our internship school of record, Jacksonville University (JU).

Please visit the Barcelona SAE website for more information.

SAE Barcelona Rocks! My Epic Study Abroad Adventure

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
If I were to go back, there are a few things I would do differently. First, I would make a conscious effort to connect more with the locals. While I met some incredible people through the program, I realize now that forming relationships with those who call Barcelona home would have enriched my experience even further.

Additionally, I would definitely spend more time soaking in the beauty of Barcelona, especially during sunset. There's something magical about watching the city come alive with golden hues, and I regret not taking advantage of those moments more often.

Lastly, I would make it a priority to explore more of what Barcelona has to offer. While I tried to see as much as I could during my time there, there's always more to discover in this vibrant city. From hidden gems tucked away in its winding streets to iconic landmarks begging to be explored, I would seize every opportunity to immerse myself in the culture and energy of Barcelona.

My experience with SAE - June 2023

Pros
  • Customized program with fun and engaging activities that are chosen based on what you want to achieve
  • They have contact with amazing homestays that will keep you in contact with the culture
  • Friendly and caring staff that will make your experience more enjoyable
Cons
  • It is not exactly a con, but I feel like there is still job to be done towards the internships. Some friends of mine had trouble with theirs and I personally didn't like that my internship was remote and that I had little to no contact with my supervisor.

Barcelona SAE: SIS + Internship

Overall, the experience of completing the SIS + Internship through Barcelona SAE was great. The staff was friendly, helpful, and supportive. The placements were very well organized and matched me very well. I found the classes to be interesting and fun. The professors were all nice, as were my internship mentors.

The program did an excellent job of orienting me in the city of Barcelona. The tours, cooking classes, and other activities were all incredibly interesting, showed a diverse range of barrios in Barcelona, and were great ways to meet new friends.

Pros
  • Amazing city
  • Great staff
  • Easy placement
Cons
  • Classes not as rigorous
  • No centralized class management system (e.g. Canvas)
