Our Politics, Social Justice & Language Program in Santiago allows you to fully immerse yourself in the daily life and culture of Santiago, Chile. Explore the intricacies of the Chilean sociopolitical landscape: student activism, the arts as a form of resistance, human rights issues, and an impressive literary culture. Studying in Santiago and participating in extracurricular adventures will, without a doubt, allow you to embark on a real-life case study of Chile's thriving society.
Courses are taught in Spanish by distinguished professors, most from one of IES Abroad's partner universities. You can also enroll in an internship or service learning placement during your semester in Santiago, which will help you add international work experience to your résumé or help you understand the city's politics, social issues, and language first-hand.

Santiago will be your classroom. Imagine practicing your Spanish as you tour local neighborhoods or visit local business organizations as part of your study of Chile's regional and global trade. Wherever possible, our courses take advantage of the city's many historical, artistic, and cultural sites, and several courses also include a hands-on, practical component.
We strive to make sure you feel safe, cared for, and at home while you’re away from home. Whether it’s the orientation program that makes you feel prepared, your housing that is well-located and comfortable, the cultural events that make it easy and fun to meet other international and local students, or the field trips and walking tours that take you to places tourists don’t usually see—we’re all about our student service. Learn more about the day-to-day studying abroad on this program. From field trips to housing, it’s all on IES Abroad’s website.
