API in San Joaquin de Flores, Costa Rica: Spanish For Medical Professions summer

Description

The Spanish for Medical Professions Program is specifically designed for pre-med and nursing students. All students should have completed a minimum of two semesters of college-level Spanish or more to be prepared for the program. The program is divided into two courses; in addition to the core course and practicum, students complete a Spanish grammar course. Students who have already completed an advanced grammar course are welcome to select one of the culture courses from the Intensive Language and Culture Program in lieu of a grammar course. Students are advised, however, that the “Communication for Medical Professions and Practicum” course is very time intensive and cultural course options may be limited due to scheduling conflicts.
