Description

Florence, Paris, and London make ideal "classrooms" for the study of art, history, and language. And then there are the extracurricular activities! Spend 10 weeks of your summer taking in the Duomo in Florence, enjoying the view from the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and cruising the bustling streets of London in a double-decker bus.

On The Grand Tour: Art in Europe, you'll earn up to 15 credits in art history, studio art, photography, French, and Italian while exploring the stunning architecture of Florence (where even the gelato is an art form), the magnificent streets of Paris, and the plethora of museums in London. You'll have a chance to:

* Earn a semester's worth of credits over the summer - While traveling through some of the most amazing cities on the planet, why not earn 15 credits in your major or in electives?

* Study in the heart of the Renaissance, the City of Light, and the home of Big Ben - It's the opportunity of a lifetime: study and live in Florence, Paris, and London, centers of European art and high culture. Check out the best architecture, food, and cultural sites in the world this summer!

* Discover your inner artist in Europe - With courses like Art in Plein Air; Photography: Shooting Like the Masters; and Art History: From the Impressionists to Today; you can really learn about famous artists and then learn how to become one yourself!

* Live with fellow students in great local apartments - Live in the heart of it all in cool, furnished apartments and get to know other students from all over the US who are on your program.

* Make spectacular cities your classroom - A great part of studying abroad is learning both inside and outside the classroom, and with this program, it's the entire point! You won't just read about a painting in class; you'll go see it in person to really understand the artist's perspective.
