Study Abroad Spetses: 

Positioned strategically between East and West, near the crossroads of Europe and Asia, and being a member of the European Union since 1981, Greece is ideally situated as a microcosm of current legal issues. Spetses is the ideal place to observe the gap between rich, represented by wealthy Greek weekenders, and working class, exemplified by the year-round residents who are struggling with newly imposed austerity measures.

This program has been designed to examine legal, economic, cultural, and social issues in both an academic and experiential way.

Study Abroad Vienna: 

Seat of the Habsburg dynasty for more than six hundred years and capital of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy until 1918, Vienna provides a rich and historic site for the program. Vienna also served as a political and cultural nerve center of Europe for centuries. Located at the crossroads between East and West, Vienna has long been the meeting place for diplomats, merchants, kings, and presidents.
