MAY 2025 PROGRAM IN Dubrovnik, Croatia
Spend your May Interim on the coast of the Adriatic Sea! This coastal city will serve as the backdrop for your course. Besides being a UNESCO World Heritage site and the filming location for Game of Thrones, Dubrovnik is filled with history, art, and culture. You will have the opportunity to explore and learn how ecology, art, sustainability, environmentalism, history, and cultural communication and discourse all come together in one spectacular city.
This program is filled with on-site guest lectures, field studies, and cultural activities. Whether you are in the parks or along the coast with your class or you are analyzing cultural communications and history and their impact on societies, this trip will prove to be a once in a lifetime experience!
Classes Available (3 hours)
BIO 304 Ecology of Place (MI, NS)
Dr. Anant Deshwal
COM 315 Intercultural Communication(GP/WC, MI)
Dr. Elena Gabor
Let’s not just read about intercultural communication but practice communicating across cultures in the touristic gem of Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on the Adriatic Sea coast. We will walk through Dubrovnik neighborhoods and observe how Croatians’ way of life has been shaped by the city’s history, architecture, and natural environment. We will chat with locals to learn how they do education, economy, healthcare, and friendships. We will eat local food and see up close how Croatians do leisure and work. Fans of Game of Thrones will see the sunset from the Old Town location where the King’s Landing was filmed. Time itself will flow a little differently in Dubrovnik. COM 315 motto: “Travel far enough, you meet yourself.” (David Mitchell, English novelist)
