The
experiences of a year or semester of study and travel overseas provide an
essential dimension of a liberal arts education that can be obtained
in no other way. For this reason, the international programs have
been designed to provide any Seaver College student, regardless of
major, the opportunity to study, live, and travel overseas without
interrupting other studies or postponing a career. Academic Year program locations in Heidelberg, Germany; London, U.K.; Florence,
Italy; Lausanne, Switzerland; Buenos Aires, Argentina; Shanghai,
China; and
Chiang Mai, Thailand offer students a unique opportunity to gain both an academic and a
personal understanding of other cultures, institutions, and
languages.
Summer language programs in Spanish and French allow beginning
students to complete their language requirement and offer advanced
students the opportunity to study both the language and the culture
of the country. Other summer programs provide special opportunities
to study and focus on business, humanities, medical missions,
biology, ecology, theatre,
music, or other topics. Upon graduation, many students conclude that
participation in one of these programs was the single most
significant experience of their undergraduate years. |
