Global Education Eastern Europe

As you consider the many options to study off campus, we encourage you to think about what enhances your academic experience overall, and, when possible, your major area of study. Keep this in mind as you browse the programs and talk with your academic advisor(s). The Global Education staff can help you find a program that best fits your needs and interests.

Please note that students must first apply to the Office of Global Education for approval to participate in an affiliate program. Deadline to submit an affiliate program application for Spring 2023 is Friday, September 9, 2022. Priority will be given to upper-division students and students whose major or minor requires global study. Please contact us at ocp@westmont.edu for further information or to schedule an appointment to learn more about the process.

The Balkans Semester

The Balkans Semester for the Study of War and Peace (Gordon College) is an interdisciplinary, humanities-based program centered around the themes of war and peace, conflict and reconciliation. The program will provide students a unique opportunity to study these themes while learning first-hand from people on both sides of recent wars and genocides who are grappling with problems of justice and forgiveness and with navigating a path toward sustainable peace. For the first two months, students live in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. The third month students travel for a 10-day sojourn through the Balkans. The semester concludes on the island of Vis in the town of Komiza. (Open to all majors)
