Tec de Monterrey, one of UBC's key partners and one of the top universities in Mexico, offers an exciting summer program that focuses on Spanish language learning at Querétaro campus or Monterrey campus. Depending on the campus, you can enrich your experience by taking an additional course about Mexican culture or Doing Business in Mexico.

There are a limited number of spaces for students who wish to participate via summer exchange (i.e. pay UBC tuition), so applications for this pathway will be assessed on a competitive basis.

Areas of study available:

• Arts
• Commerce
• Cultural Studies
• Spanish Language

Course equivalency formula

• 1 Tec de Monterrey credit = 1 UBC credit 

Course load information

• Take two courses, worth 6 credits total. A language placement test is given upon arrival and students are placed in the appropriate course level. For this reason, the year level obtained cannot be guaranteed in advance
