EF Global Challenge Honors Semester: Spain & Sweden
Embark on a semester of culturally immersive study in Spain to address some of our world’s most pressing problems—head on. You’ll be challenged to question conventional wisdom, examine (and even disrupt) current systems, and develop innovative solutions for global challenges. Inspired by Alfred Nobel’s belief that “Ideas can change the world,” your studies will be rooted in an EF cornerstone course: Lessons from Nobel: Design Thinking & Leadership for Social Impact. The rest of your courses at the University of Granada and EF’s Study Center in Málaga will include interdisciplinary studies and hone your Spanish language skills. Your experience culminates at the Nobel Week Dialogue in Sweden.
