Info current as of 11-20-09; Check back for updates.

Location

Paris, the capital of France, is a major world metropolis. The Seine River traverses the city; its waterways, quays, and bridges are major thoroughfares, and also ways to see the city’s most famous monuments, such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre museum, and the Notre Dame cathedral. The city is known for its cafés (one for every 200 inhabitants); its parks (Bois de Boulougne, Jardin de Luxembourg, Bois de Vincennes); its street life and markets; and as a center for culture, art, fashion, gastronomy, and intellectual life.

Program of Study

Students will take two 3-credit courses during the six-week program, June 14-July 22, 2010.  Professor Josh Kaplan, Director of Undergraduate Studies, Political Science, will teach Tocqueville's America and Tocqueville's France.  Students will also enroll in an Art History course, History of Paris in Architecture and Art, taught in English by a French professor.  Students will receive Notre Dame credit for these courses and they will count towards the GPA.  Both courses will be taught in English; there is no language requirement for this program.

This program in Paris is offered for Summer 2010 only.  It is possible that a program will be offered in Paris in subsequent summers.  Future programs will likely differ in timing and courses offered.  We must have 10 students confirm participation in this program to offer it during Summer 2010.
