UPO’s International Center has extensive experience developing custom programs. As the host institution, we provide top quality professors, administrative & organizational support, and any other services agreed upon for each program.
Unique opportunities
Designed to cater to institutions and organizations seeking to provide international students with a transformative educational experience within a university setting in Spain’s beautiful region of Andalusia. Our programs are hosted either at our main campus (just a short metro ride away from Seville’s city center) or in the heart of the beautiful city of Seville.
Tailored Programs
Choose from a diverse array of elective subjects taught in either English or Spanish, covering disciplines such as Business, Communication, Political Science, the Health Sciences and many more. Spanish language classes at all levels including specialized courses (e.g. Spanish for the Health Professions) are also available.
Flexibility
Our programs are designed to suit your needs, with options available year-round, flexible scheduling, and the ability to customize offerings to include accommodation, meals, transportation, cultural excursions, and leisure activities. Additionally, the minimum duration is set to one week, providing ample flexibility to accommodate your group’s specific preferences and schedule.

What to take into account when creating a program
Getting started is as easy as reaching out to us with your details and an outline of the custom-made program you envision for your students. Here are some considerations:
- Program Duration (Minimum 1 week)
- Program Dates
- Approximate Number of Students (min. 10) and Accompanying Professor(s)
- Core Services (e.g. specialized business courses, company visits, etc.)
- Additional Services (e.g. accommodations, transportation services, cultural visits, etc.)
- Academic Requirements (credit hours)
A person from our staff will be in touch with you to discuss the options and provide a customized quote.
Programs can take place throughout the year, except during the 2nd half of July, the month of August, Holy Week, Seville’s April Fair and the Christmas holidays (late December until January 7th)
It depends on the type of program you wish to organize, the availability of professors for the academic component as well as the infrastructure required.
There are a number of residence halls to choose from. There is one on campus, another one within walking distance to campus and several residence halls downtown Seville. We also arrange accomodations with local host families.
