Be the first to review this abroad program

The Geography and Culture of Germany, Austria, and Czech Republic will be a 3 credit hour course that includes a brief history of the regions visited as well as comparisons between typically Western, Eastern, and transitional European cultures. One of the central themes during this program will be a comparison and analysis of the “westernization” and change that Europe has undergone. Visiting some of the most important cultural, historic, and religious centers in Europe allows participants an opportunity to see how different regions influenced one another, as well as maintained their own identities. While a major part of European history was prior to World War II, the war and its aftermath are key to the change that Europe is currently undergoing. Students on this trip will be able to study the political, cultural, and economic changes that have occurred in Europe over the last 1/2 century. The course is open to any current undergraduate at Eastern Illinois University and has no pre-requisites. Since students will be able to receive credit for other courses, students are subject to the pre-requisites for those courses. For example, if a student wants to receive Senior Seminar credit, they must have at least 75 semester-hours completed (Biology and Geology Majors are not eligible for senior seminar credit). There are no language requirements for program since English-speaking guides will be available during all portions.
