Faculty-led Program in Greece (Prof. Igou/DeBarthe)
Greece is a major force in the world economy and international relations. Through first-hand experiences of the Greek culture, this educational travel course provides students with opportunities to enhance their knowledge and capability of working in a culture different from their own. Having practical experience in a culture and society with profound historical roots provides insights for adapting to various cultures. Developing an understanding of that culture as well as the skills for working with international citizens in a wide range of situations provides UNI students an advantage when seeking career opportunities.
While abroad, students will visit start-up companies and established industries, explore ancient archeological sites, and enjoy the natural beauty of the Greek islands.

I would 10/10 recommend this program to other students! I enjoyed that we didn't stay in one area the whole time, we were constantly traveling to new areas and cities and it kept the trip eventful. The history and views are to die for and the food is top notch. Not to mention all the people and friendships that come out of this abroad experience! - 2024 participant
100000% It was the best experience of my life and so helpful to have study abroad plan the itinerary! Makes life so much easier and I was able to learn so much along the way. - 2024 participant
