Students will be immersed in an experience that links language study with learning about Uruguayan society, preparing students to meet the Hispanic Studies Program learning outcomes. The course also seeks to expand students' knowledge about the Hispanic world, first by exposing students to the variety of Spanish spoken in the Río de la Plata region and second, by providing students with the opportunity to attend lectures on Uruguayan literature and history by local writers and professors. Additionally, the experience of a home-stay and structured experiential learning opportunities will allow students to become familiar with Uruguayan contemporary social struggles as well as with its progressive agenda in terms of gender-related legislation. Finally, by participating in excursions outside the capital students will learn of Uruguay's unique historical past and present.

Global and intercultural education is one of the primary focal points of the academic program at Pacific Lutheran University.
Committed to educate for a just, healthy, sustainable, and peaceful world, PLU weaves global education through almost every aspect of a student's study. World events shape our lives, and PLU's curriculum reflects that reality. As a result, students will graduate well prepared for graduate study or a career with a global focus.
PLU's partnership with Earth Deeds allows us to go further in these commitments and enable students to measure and acknowledge the unavoidable carbon footprints from their study away experience and help support a meaningful sustainability project.
