K-State students spent a month in Spain last summer building their Spanish language skills through immersive cultural experiences and individual research projects.

Students in humanities, health sciences, STEM, agriculture and other areas earned 6 credits and used Spanish to conduct research, interact with locals, explore new perspectives, and gain a cross-cultural understanding of their future professions.

Several students will share their research at the "Spain Today: Research & Photography" event from 3-4:15 p.m. on Wed., Oct. 28, in 015 Eisenhower Hall.

Plans are underway for another Spain Today program May 22-June 23, 2027. Learn more from the story linked below.
