The Granada Study Abroad Program in Spain at the University of Granada is offered in conjunction with the " Centro de Lenguas Modernas ", a division of the University of Granada, and is located in an attractive downtown building. All of the facilities of the University are available to our students. Students from all over the world study in the "Centro" program and Spanish is therefore the common language.
Granada, an Andalusian city located in southern Spain, at the foot of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, less than an hour away from the Mediterranean Sea and crowned by the Alhambra, a special beauty and a visit here will be an unforgettable experience for all of those who decide to make the journey. This internationally renowned city boasts a rich Arab and Christian past as well as its own vibrant present with a friendly inviting atmosphere. A member of the UNH faculty will be in residence in Granada to assist students, administer the program, and teach one course.
