GW Summer Abroad

During the summer (and sometimes during spring break), GW offers short, intensive courses taught abroad on a particular theme or focused topic. Courses are taught by GW and Elliott School professors and offerings may change each summer. Students earn GW credit for their participation in a GW Summer Abroad course. Programs of particular interest to Elliott School graduate students offered in 2009 include:

• Belgium: Global Corporate Responsibility
• Chile: 2009 Chile Residency
• China: Globalization and Business, Economic and Financial Issues
• China: Survey of International Economics
• Costa Rica: International Education & Policy: Implications for American Educators
• Czech Republic and Slovakia: Central European Affairs
• Dominican Republic: Sustainable Tourism Development in the Dominican Republic
• England: Privatization, Nationalization, and Public-Private Partnerships
• GW-Oxford program in International Human Rights Law
• Panama: Sustainable Development Strategies, Ecotourism and Security: A Geographic Field Course
• Russia and Ukraine: Media, Power, and Public Opinion in Russia and Ukraine

New courses for summer abroad, and any spring break courses that might be offered, are announced by GW each December.
