Salisbury University students have the opportunity to study Brazilian culture and history, Portuguese language, and international business at the Universidade do Sul Santa Maria in Florianopolis, Brazil through SU's long-time study abroad partner International Studies Abroad. Recognized worldwide for its soccer stars, samba, and beautiful beaches, Brazil today has emerged as a political and economic leader in Latin America and the rest of the world. Brazil encompasses one-half of South America's land area, is home to one-half of South America's total population, and is the world's third largest democracy. As a nation of contrast, diversity, and rich cultural heritage, Brazil offers a study abroad experience unlike any other. Known for their warm and welcoming nature, Brazilians are experts in enjoying life to the fullest and celebrating the diverse influences that shape their history and culture. ISA's Brazil program allows students to combine strong academic offerings with endless amounts of cultural experiences and outdoor activities. Both inside and outside the classroom, students will find themselves immersed not only in the Portuguese language but also in a a uniquely Brazilian way of life. This Program offers students international economics and cultural studies courses taught in English and Portuguese. Course topics include studies on race and ethnicity, consumer behavior, global economy, contemporary cultural studies, and Brazilian literature and culture. In addition, students may select from Portuguese language courses at the basic, intermediate and advanced levels. During the semester programs, students with an advanced level of Portuguese may enroll in courses with local students taught in Portuguese in various departments.
