Learning Environments
Languages
Learn a new language and explore the history and culture behind it. Language courses are inspiring experiences linked to many Paths and Fields that will bring what you are learning to life. Consider a Study Abroad experience to deepen your learning.
Individual Study
Individual Study is a great way to broaden your understanding and have a one-of-a-kind experience. Design your own course of study and get space to work independently on a project you’re passionate about like writing a piece of music, studying the remains of an ancient city, doing research in an archive, or traveling to study a cultural practice.
Study Abroad
Travel with a tight-knit community of fellow students and your faculty to explore the cultures and history of people around the world.
