Description:

Recognizing the value of a global diversity experience, and in the spirit of cross-cultural inquiry, Study Abroad offers students the genuine opportunity to interact within the cultural milieu of another country, or countries, through a variety of scheduled Study Abroad journeys. Coordinated by the Study Abroad Director, faculty for Study Abroad courses are selected according to academic area of expertise, or through demonstrated significant personal/professional knowledge and experience within the country, or countries, to be visited. Faculty or qualified staff may also be selected for specialized opportunities, as approved by the Study Abroad Director, the Academic Dean and the President. Specific academic requirements for credit within an approved Study Abroad experience generally include pre-trip readings and meetings with faculty involved, a journal chronicling the experience, and a final academic paper and conference with faculty involved. Individual academic departments offering course credit for Study Abroad experiences shall specify additional requirements and protocols. Course may be repeated for credit with approval of departments involved. Cultures and Natural History of Belize, Exploring Compassionate AIDS Care in Southern Africa, and International Experience in Italy fulfill Global Diversity requirement.
