We’re not in Antarctica—not yet. But DSU has student exchange
programs on every other continent in the world, in countries ranging from France
to Namibia to New Zealand.
Current opportunities include:
- Tropical Agriculture, Ecosystems, and Conservation, a field course in Belize
- a 14-year exchange program with Mexico’s Centro de Idiomas (Center
of Languages) in the Yucatan, which allows DSU foreign language students
to engage in advanced Spanish language studies in Mexico and brings Mexican
students to DSU
- Researching political and economic structures in Namibia, Africa as well
as cultural heritage preservation in South Africa
- Earning credits with DSU’s School of Management by studying for
a semester or summer in Spain, Greece and France
Other overseas opportunities are in the works:
- a field school in Jamaica
- an exchange program with Cuba
- teaching and research exchanges with a university in Egypt
Actually, DSU’s global studies begin right here at home, with an internationalized
curriculum. The Global Societies Program is an introduction to world economics,
politics, and cultures. Courses include World Regional Geography, International
Economics and Trade, International Politics, and Politics in Developing Nations.
Language offerings include French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Kiswahili, and
Arabic.
These exciting studies lay the groundwork for overseas travel and academic
pursuits in the Study Abroad program.
