Madrileños are justifiably proud. Much more than just a place to learn or perfect Spanish, Madrid is a modern political, cultural, and financial center. Here, people have managed to preserve the old while embracing the new, keeping alive small-town traditions alongside cosmopolitan cultural events and a world-famous nightlife scene. The city is now enjoying its latest renaissance with numerous restored historic buildings and an abundance of well-maintained parks and public squares.
Once you arrive in Madrid, you’ll be introduced to our program and will meet fellow classmates and the Syracuse University Madrid staff.
