UCSD Global Seminars 2010

UCSD Global Seminars will be offered in summer session one 2010. These are five week long study abroad experiences led by a UCSD professor. Students will enroll in a package of two courses for a total of eight UCSD units (quarter credits). Class sizes will be between 15-30 students, so there will be excellent opportunities for one-on-one interaction with some of the best faculty at UCSD.
All courses will be taught in English, but some programs will offer a few hours of very basic, elementary language instruction to help you navigate the local community.
