Hue, Vietnam - July 27 - August 29
Encountering VIETNAM - This program takes advantage of a unique location in Hue, Vietnam to introduce students to Vietnamese culture, language and history as an encounter reflected in travel writing.
Students will study Vietnam's tumultuous past and its diverse cultures through reading past travel narratives produced over the centuries and they will each participate in producing their own, contemporary travel narrative. "Encountering Vientam" is designed as a travel study that complements on-campus courses students may have already taken in Vietnamese history or language. Participants do not need to speak or understand Vietnamese. Students will earn 8 units of UC credit by successfully completing one 5-unit course and a 3-unit course.
MADRID, SPAIN - July 27 - August 29
