Study Abroad in Armenia: International Business and Relations


The University of Georgia (Athens, GA) is pleased to offer a 3-week study abroad & cultural experience course in Armenia for Maymester 2008. UGA Study Abroad in Armenia provides opportunities to young people across US to gain a genuine study abroad experience in Armenia and gain transferable academic credit from the University of Georgia.

 

UGA in Armenia gives an opportunity to learn about the socio-economic and political developments in Armenia and the Region since its Independence. Additionally, the students will be exposed to the rich cultural, religious, and historical heritage of Armenia.

 

The group will be accommodated in Yerevan (Yerevan State University’s Foreign Guest House) and will make daily field trips throughout Armenia to visit major businesses (Yerevan Brandy Company, diamond processing, wine production, hand made carpets and rugs, high technologies), major political and international organizations (Government, Parliament, EU, UN, US Embassy) and sights of historical significance.

 

Daily activities will be enriched through evening social gatherings and cultural events as well as exploration of Yerevan’s more than 200 open air terrace cafés, authentic ethnic restaurants and discos. Spring is the perfect season for relaxing while listening to Armenian, jazz, and classical music in Yerevan’s many renowned concert halls as well as the monumental Cascade.

 

The University of Georgia is the flagship land-grant University of the State of Georgia and allows non-UGA students to pay in-state tuition for UGA study abroad programs. Students participating at UGA sponsored study abroad program will be able to get transferable credits from UGA.

 

There are several scholarships available for students of Armenian ethnicity. Please check our website for more info.
