This course combines formal study and experiential learning to gain insight into life and culture in three different regions of the world: Mainland Southeast Asia (Myanmar), the European Union, and the Malay Archipelago (the Philippines). Students will focus on one region in each of the three 5-week segments of the course. Specific topics covered in each segment may include cultural practices, daily life, holidays, history, geography, international connections, economy, social tendencies, and future directions for the region and its people.
In this course, students will produce the Area Studies section of their On-Campus Study Abroad Portfolio.
