This program will focus on place, space and landscape, and on how language and culture construct our relations
(humanist and scientific, via literature and first-hand experience) with the environment and its non-human
inhabitants. We will first visit Glastonbury, Stonehenge and Tintagel, and stay for two weeks in the coastal town of St. Ives,
Cornwall, and then travel on to the small university town of Exeter and to London. The combined courses invite students
to explore how literature and place shape each other, and how places and ecosystems change over time, mainly due to anthropogenic interventions. Local guest lecturers and tours
will be weaved into both courses. A tour of the ruins of Tintagel Castle, for example, gives students the opportunity to
learn about one of the most important Arthurian sites in England and to study the process of legend-making as it is
tied to place.

of London. Second, to interact with local citizens to produce and edit a 10-12 minute documentary on various subjects to be determined by the students. Students will attend lectures about the culture and history of England in many of the key sights
in London and throughout the country. These sites include: the Tower of London, Windsor Castle, Hampton Court Palace, Westminster Abbey, the Museum of London,
the Churchill War Rooms, the Imperial War Museum (London and Duxford) and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. We will also visit Edinburgh, Scotland to discover the

This program consists of two courses: one being French language immersion, and the other a study of the regional French culture and history of Savoie. Both courses are held in Annecy, located in eastern France, between Geneva and
Chambéry. Annecy is one of the most beautiful resort towns of the French Alps and is often referred to as the “Venice of Savoie.” But Annecy is more than just a beautiful place to
explore. It holds a rich history that has made this region quite different from many others. Thus, the objective of this
program is to discover and examine the culture and history of the entire region of Savoie. A trip to Paris will launch this
special experience and introduce students to a city of considerable beauty and impressive history.

Berlin was a nexus of 20th century European culture. Through Nationalism, Fascism-Nazism, Communism and now Internationalism (the EU), Berlin has been
a symbol and often a victim of Europe’s idea of itself. In the 21st century, Berlin has become both the hope and the testing ground of what Europe will be in the next fifty years. This program will expose students—
through the practice of photography and design—to the follies of the past and the promise of the future, while training them in the discipline of developing a
considered visual response to direct observation.

Students will travel to Munich, Nuremberg, Berlin, Warsaw and Krakow – cities that played central roles during the Holocaust and that continue to be central as sites of remembrance, memory and trauma. These visits are complemented by lectures, seminars and guided tours – given by faculty of the University of Munich, the Free University Berlin and the Jagiellonian University Krakow – as well

In addition to focusing separately on volcanic
and glacial processes, we will consider the ways that magma and groundwa-ter interact to create geothermal energy; how magma and glaciers interact; and how Icelandic society is influenced by these and other environmental
factors. This is a field-based experience, and most days involve hiking to and from the study area for that day. We spend most nights in tents.

This program studies two revolutions in scientific thought: the Scientific Revolution of the 17th and 18th centuries and the computational revolution of the 20th century. We begin with an exploration of the Scientific Revolution, as
exemplified by the work of Copernicus and Galileo in Italy. From our base in Florence and Rome, the heart of the Italian Renaissance, we trace the
evolution of scientific thought from the 16th through 18th centuries. We study the natural connections between the history of science taking place during
the Italian Renaissance through scientific outings to local museums, observatories, universities, laboratories and archaeological sites. We then contrast this material with key results from chaos theory, computational
complexity, logic, physics, quantum mechanics and the theory of computation, all developed in the 20th century. Students will visit key
historical, cultural and artistic sites in Florence, Rome, Pisa, Bologna and Vinci.

Much resource use results in waste, either as a byproduct or an end result. Solid waste creates a significant
environmental problem on many levels. It often signifies inefficient use of resources, contributes to land use issues (e.g. landfills) and can initiate pollution in other mediums such as air, soil and water (e.g. incineration or leachate from landfills). We have a mounting problem with solid waste management
in our society and world. This program will explore the engineering, science, environmental impacts and policy
issues pertinent to waste management in Europe.

Much of what is written and read in today’s news, especially in the United States, offers a limited and narrow view of
Russia. Students will have the opportunity to explore and deepen their knowledge of the Russian language through
regular classes as well as immersion in broader society. They will also be exposed to Russia’s culture and history through
visits to key historic and contemporary landmarks and related lectures and readings. Russia’s geography and politics will also
be examined though discussions and site visits.

Focusing on the themes of conflict resolution, peace-building and nation-building, the Dialogue investigates conflict and post-conflict reconstruction in the former Yugoslavia (principally
Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Kosovo). 2015 is the 20th anniversary of the end of the Bosnian War (1992-95), which included ethnic cleansing, genocide and other war crimes - some of which
are still being prosecuted. In this program, we look especially at American efforts to end the bloody conflict in Bosnia (through the Dayton Accords) in 1995. Using the case study approach, this course examines the Balkans conflict from the break-up of Yugoslavia, the civil wars between and
among a multiplicity of nationalist militias, parties and movements, and the U.S. and NATO military strikes against Serbia during the 1990s.

This program provides first-hand experiences of the role of religion in Spain. First, we travel to southern Spain to an area that for centuries was a Muslim country
ruled by the Moors and called al-Andalus. Next, we head north to visit a pilgrimage route the Catholic Church promoted as part of its efforts to push the
Muslim Moors out of Spain: the Camino de Santiago de Compostela. We will spend two weeks as pilgrims, walking the last 150 miles of the route, and resting in towns that bear vivid material evidence of the popularity of this
practice through their ecclesial art and architecture. This unit will allow the student to explore the significance of pilgrimage by performing the
actions of a pilgrim.

In recent years, many engineering and science students have developed an interest in applying their
engineering skills to diverse problems in biology, health, environmental studies and remote sensing. At
Northeastern, increasing numbers of students are working in imaging, through courses, research projects,
and cooperative education assignments. Students wishing to work in this discipline in the future require not
only strong technical skills (which transcend national borders), but also a knowledge of the financial, political, cultural, and social issues that vary from one country to
another. The theme of this program is international research and development. This program is designed
for students with an interest in optics or signal processing, or both.
