HARRISBURG, Pa. — Penn State Harrisburg has added Cuba to its spring 2018 international study tour offerings. The tour, which is available for the first time since diplomatic relations were reestablished between Cuba and the United States, will take place March 2 through 9 and focus on the exploration and discovery of the unique facets of Cuban culture.
Required readings and assignments prior to departure will offer information to enhance this cultural immersion opportunity. The course will include a homestay experience and service-learning encounter. Following the trip, each student will submit a formal response paper or project, which demonstrates both understanding and analysis of the cultural concepts studied and experienced in this course.
Along with Cuba, Penn State Harrisburg is offering study tours to London (March 2-10), Paris (March 2-11) and Germany (March 3-11).
All of the tours provide students an exciting opportunity to travel the world and learn about different countries through first-hand experience.
