About Program
If you have to choose just one place along Chile’s thousands of miles of coast as a great place to study and learn, make it Valparaíso, a memorable old-world city designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site with funicular lifts that transport you above the rooftops and reveal stunning views of the Pacific Ocean.
Explore Latin American culture and improve your Spanish language skills by taking courses with local and other international students, taught in your choice of English and Spanish at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV), one of Chile’s most recognized universities. A multi-campus university with a highly diverse student body, PUCV is an ideal learning environment if you want to experience cultural and language immersion in a seaside, Spanish-speaking city rich with history.
