Study Abroad: Summer Faculty Program
When going to Loyola Admission talks or going on Loyola’s Study Abroad site, I am sure they talked about how we have three hubs in three big cities; The John Felice Rome Center in Italy, The Beijing Center in China, and The Vietnam Center in Ho Chi Minh City. However, did you know that you can take upper level classes in your major while also studying abroad? These are Loyola’s lesser known study abroad options, the Summer Faculty Program. Here, you take a three credit course over the summer with around ten other students and a Loyola professor while also getting the opportunity to explore. I am actually applying to be in the program that goes to London, England to learn about International Public Relations by visiting various reputable PR Firms (COMM 278). Here are some places that you can go and pursue deeper knowledge of your field of study:
FREN 300 (Montreal, Canada): Independent Study French for the Health Sector
COMM 373 (Santiago, Chile): Digital Storytelling
PLSC 300 (Havana, Cuba): Cuba Today: Politics and Society
MARK 399 (Athens, Greece): Global Political Economy of Marketing
ENVS 224 or ENVS 364 (Reykjavik, Iceland): Climate Change or Sustainability Management in the Global Context
These are just some of the examples of the places that you can visit. For the full list please check out http://www.luc.edu/studyabroad/summerlocations/ for more information.
