STUDY ABROAD

Our study abroad programs provide students with the opportunity to see first-hand the locations, cultures, artifacts, works of art, and architecture that they have been studying in the classroom.  Significant written assignments, directed readings, and lectures are an integral component of each study abroad term.  Faculty and students deliver lectures on-site at various historical and cultural locations allowing students to, for example, learn about Julius Caesar as they sit in the Roman Forum!

Aside from the educational benefits of these study abroad programs, students who have participated in these trips constantly comment on the invaluable life, character building, and worldview enhancing experience they have gained through travelling in community, and interacting with so many diverse cultures.

ARTS PROGRAM

All students in the Bachelor of Arts program participate in two terms of travel and study abroad as part of their degree: one term is spent traveling through Western Europe and one in the developing world, typically in South-East Asia. All expenses of the travel study abroad trips are included in the cost of the travel term, with the exception of travel insurance, immunizations, passport fees, any personal spending money and gear that is needed.
