experience france 2008

MISSION STATEMENT

The European – American Center is a collaborative community of artist and scholars gathered to explore the deeply rich cultural heritage of central France while fostering individual artistic intellectual and personal growth.

This is a unique three-week opportunity to discover central France and the city of Paris through the arts. The program is a perfect match for one who seeks a study abroad experience with courses taught in English. While some course work will take place in the classroom, the majority of experiences step out into the city and local country side, as professors lead students through museums and monuments of interest. Students will have the opportunity to explore and expand their own creative language through the written word, historical and cultural studies and the applied arts. All courses do not have any prerequisites and are open to all students.  Students have the option of applying for three credit hours upon completion of the program.
