The Netherlands Geography and Planning Faculty Led Study Abroad Program - Information Session
Wednesday, December 6, 2023
11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Allendale Campus
Students
We invite you to join us at our information session for the Geography and Planning program in the Netherlands. We will go over classes, excursions, activities, housing, funding options, and more.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
This program will select 10 locations exemplifying distinct cultural landscapes unique to the Netherlands. Students will participate in daily field trips, during which they will conduct on-site visits and investigations and meet with local planning officials. Locations include the Province of Overijssel Land Use Management Department, the Dutch Barrier Islands, Amsterdam, the Northeast Polder, Rotterdam Harbors, Zeeland Delta Hydrologic Protective Works and many more. Students will have an authentic cultural experience by living outside of the tourist areas at a local guest house.
Students will apply geographic concepts that they learned in their Regional and Urban Planning courses in a real world international setting. The Netherlands is a very rich destination that can serve both the geographic aspects of cultural landscapes but also has a robust regional and urban planning history.
There is an informational session for this program coming up! If you are interested in this program, I highly recommend coming to this session where you can learn more about this program! Also, you can ask any questions you may have regarding it.
