A Campus as Big as the World.
Imagine spending two years on six continents in more than 50 countries while learning to speak four languages and being immersed in a whole
variety of cultures with like-minded students who want to do substantial good in the world.
The program begins with your traveling to Edinburgh, Scotland, and being introduced to the entire program. From here, you will travel to see parts of Scotland, England, Wales, and Ireland.
Here is where you will get your full immersion into the French language and culture while also taking trips to countries like Spain, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Poland, among others
After a three-week respite back home, you will fly to Uruguay to be immersed in speaking Spanish and the culture, history, arts, and religious traditions of the peoples of South and Central America. During this time, you will spend time in Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and Costa Rica.
The significance of China's rise in the world cannot be underestimated. Knowing this culture and language will be invaluable for future leaders. After another trip home, you will learn the Mandarin tongue and unlock the mysteries and richness of Chinese culture, religion, history, and art. During this period, you will also spend time in neighboring South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and a few weeks in Australia.
One of the most populous countries on Earth, India is a wealth of cultural and linguistic diversity and beauty. After another trip back home, you will fly to the Middle East and India to learn Arabic and see much of the Middle East and southeastern Asia, including Cairo, Morocco, Dubai, Jerusalem, Jakarta, Singapore, Indonesia, Nepal, Thailand, and more. The cultural and religious understanding you will gain from this residency will be worth it all!
Africa is one of the fastest-growing regions of the world and is becoming an important economic growth spot for the next half century. It has so much history, culture, and religious influence being exported all over the world. Here is where you will revisit your four new languages while you experience Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, and/or several others.
This will be the culmination of all your travels, cultural explorations, and language learning. For the final part of the program, you will spend time sifting through all that you have learned by looking deeply into the cultures and religious landscapes of the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean and tying everything you have experienced in a capstone project, your personal "Grand Life Strategy": a plan for continuing your preparation for a life of doing substantial good in the world.
