What are you doing this summer? Thinking about study abroad, maybe get a job or an internship? Here’s why you should head to Brazil:
1. Learn Portuguese
As Brazil becomes a leader in South America, both politically and economically, being able to do business in Brazil and speak the language is an amazing asset and résumé builder. We offer language and economics courses so can get the most out of your time there. For beginners, you can take an overview of Doing Business in Brazil, and for those interested in more in depth study, we offer Brazil in the BRICS.
2. World Cup!

Running from June 12th to July 13th, there will be events and celebrations all over the country. And Brazil’s team is favored by many to win this year, so it is definitely an experience not to be missed!
