Your Destination
Founded in 1536, this bustling metropolis reveals its European influence everywhere you look. Buenos Aires is a vibrant port city and the world’s leading Spanish language publishing hub. Travelers enjoy world-class museums and restaurants, exceptional architecture, and a rousing nightlife. With weather that is pleasantly mild almost year-round, Buenos Aires is ready for exploration by bike, public transportation, or on foot - one of the many reasons it has been voted “the number-one city to visit” in Latin America.
CIEE wants all our students to feel welcomed, supported, and empowered to succeed while studying abroad. Local CIEE staff have provided details about conditions and cultural attitudes that students with specific identities might encounter in Buenos Aires.

Academics
The Buenos Aires Open Campus Block Program is designed to help students explore the dynamics of this vibrant and beautiful city and culture. Students have access to a range of complementary co-curricular, personal, and professional development activities. Throughout the program, students will explore connections between business, social development, and culture. The goals of the curriculum are to promote cultural self-awareness, scientific and cultural literacy, and the ability to bridge cultural gaps. Through interactive activities and exercises, students are encouraged to consider issues of culture, identity, values, beliefs, and assumptions. Ultimately, students develop discipline-specific competencies so they can effectively incorporate new experiences into their general understanding of the natural environment, as well as local human culture.
Students can choose from a variety of disciplines within seven different tracks: Art and Architecture; Business; Communications, Journalism, and New Media; Global and Community Health; International Relations and Political Science; Language, Literature, and Culture; or STEM and Society in English. Courses are mostly taught in English by CIEE faculty; Spanish language classes are available at multiple different levels. There are no required courses and no prerequisites to participate, although upper-level courses will require previous coursework in related topics. Students enroll in one, two, or three six-week blocks, taking two courses during each block.
This program gives students the flexibility to stay in Buenos Aires the entire time or spend other blocks at our Open Campus Block locations in Berlin, Cape Town, Copenhagen, Dublin, Kyoto, London, Madrid, Monteverde, Paris, Rome, Santiago-CL, Shanghai, Singapore, Sydney, and Yucatan.
Arizona State University: Enhance your international academic coursework with optional online courses that best align with your degree requirements and interests. ASU offers thousands of online courses in asynchronous 7.5-week sessions that fit within the CIEE academic calendar, so you can study abroad with CIEE while continuing to meet all your academic goals.
