There are two new exciting Study Abroad programs that are led by CAS faculty, which will be running this summer! Both Dr. Soumia Bardhan and Dr. Ines Meyer-Hoess are hosting information sessions this week to learn more about these programs in Morocco and Vienna!
Penn State in Morocco, Summer 2015:
A two-week program in the Kingdom of Morocco is being offered by Penn State’s
Department of Communication Arts and Sciences in Summer 2015.
30-minute ferry ride away from Spain. In Morocco, one can see Roman ruins, ancient cities, and elegant Islamic monuments, white sand beaches, the Sahara, and the High Atlas mountains.
Summer Study Abroad In Austria, Experience Vienna
Want to travel to Europe next summer and earn PSU-credits? How about studying abroad in Vienna, Austria, for four weeks (July 15–August 15, 2015) and earning six PSU-credits? Sounds good? Check out our new study-abroad program and join Dr. Ines Meyer-Hoess for an info session on Friday, January 23, from noon-2 pm and 6-8 pm right at my office (202 Sparks):
Two courses that translate into 6 PSU-credits will be offered in cooperation with the University of Vienna from July 15–August 15, 2015: CAS 271 Intercultural Communication and CAS 199/499 Foreign Studies: Communication in the European Union; Politics, Policies, and Practices.
Our program offers a plethora of formal and informal opportunities to engage in dialogue with Austrians of a variety of backgrounds. The objective is to provide students with an immersive experience abroad to enhance self-reflection, flexibility, and sensitivity in intercultural communication settings that can be applied to both personal and professional environments.
