Administration of the Academic Year in Spain

The program is administered at Hamilton College by a general director and by the Programs Abroad Committee of the Departments of Hispanic Studies and French. Representatives from Williams and Swarthmore Colleges serve as close advisors to the HCAYS administrators.  The program also maintains an affiliation with Amherst and Haverford colleges. An assistant and a housing coordinator work in the program office in Madrid. Thus the program benefits from the competence of distinguished directors from various schools, and at the same time continuity is maintained and the standards and traditions of Hamilton are upheld.
