Best 3.5 months of my life!

March 09, 2025by: Reena Kagan - United StatesProgram: SIT Study Abroad: Argentina: Public Health in Urban Envr.

I absolutely loved my semester abroad with this program and would recommend it to anyone that is interested in learning about public health in a Spanish-speaking context. I learned so much from an academic and professional perspective, but I also learned a ton about myself. I adore my host mom and learned so much from her and I hope to keep in touch with her for many, many years. I loved the group of students in my program, and we had a perfect balance of time in Buenos Aires and time spent traveling—either with the program or independently. I am a much more confident and independent person now, with interests and insights that I would not have gained if it were not for this experience. I am immensely grateful!

An academically intensive yet rewarding experience

February 18, 2025by: Maya Neiberg - United StatesProgram: SIT Study Abroad: Argentina: Public Health in Urban Envr.

This program is a great opportunity for people who want to gain on-the-ground public health experiences. I felt myself challenged by all aspects of the program and definitely improved my Spanish skills as well as my understanding of public health systems outside the United States. That being said, keep in mind that this is a very intense program that is not comparable to a classic European study abroad trip. You will either be in class or on a field visit from 9:00-5:00pm most days. While this presents great learning opportunities, it may take a little bit of time to get used to the Argentine teaching style, which includes 2-3 hour lectures with little discussion. Overall, be prepared to find yourself being pushed outside your comfort zone. It may be uncomfortable at first, but the program provides great academic and professional experience that will no doubt benefit you upon your return.

A Guide to Studying Abroad in Buenos Aires

Subjects & Courses

There are two primary routes you can generally take to study abroad in Buenos Aires. The first is enrolling in classes directly at a local university (such as the University of Buenos Aires, one of the most highly regarded on the continent). In order to enroll at an Argentine university you will typically be expected to have a respectable command of the Spanish language, at least so much that you may understand what your professors are lecturing about.

An alternative path is to study at an international or satellite school which is connected to a study abroad program in Buenos Aires. Enrolling in classes at one of these smaller institutions can give you the benefit of an English-taught education by local faculty, along with a course load specifically designed for foreign students. Some structured study abroad programs during the summer time can also take you to multiple destinations throughout the region, with Buenos Aires just one stop among several.

Whichever path you choose, some popular course subjects explored by international students in Buenos Aires include Spanish, history, Latin American studies, psychology, and international relations. Your selection of courses will be much broader at a full university than at a smaller satellite school, but both can provide for a great education nonetheless!
