Founded in 1965, the Madrid Study Center will immerse you in
the language and culture of a beautiful, exciting and historic European city. You will experience the city in its natural glory through exploring places like the Parque del Retiro, a favorite spot for Study Center students. Shop in the markets and small stores, sample Spanish cuisine at cafés, tapas bars and restaurants. Live the culture through the many festivals, theatre, music, dance and other entertainment offered. And you can do all of this easily and affordably with Madrid’s excellent mass transit system.
Immerse Yourself
You will get to know Spanish students just like you! Through the Study Center’s optional intercambios (language exchanges), you will have the opportunity to interact with Spanish students studying English at the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras. And if that’s not enough, lace up your tennies and join the Club de Deportes where you’ll be able to participate in university intramural soccer, rugby, basketball and other sports.
Throughout your learning experience and adventure in Spain, Marquette Study Center staff will provide you with personal attention from your initial inquiry through the program, to reacclimating upon your return back to the States.

The Marquette Study Center makes its home within the Universidad Complutense de Madrid — one of Spain’s largest and most prestigious universities.
