I have been given the opportunity of taking two 8-weeks classes during the summer term that includes a 3-weeks study abroad component. The classes are General Psychology (PSYC 2003), taught as an online class, and Introduction to Philosophy (PHIL 2003), taught as a campus class.During the 3-weeks study abroad to Germany, visit cities where many famous philosophers and psychologists studied, worked, and lived. Get a feel for the people and topics you learn about in your course(s).
Kassel, Germany, a UNESCO Heritage City, will be the hub of our Germany study abroad program. In collaboration with the International Summer University (ISU), a division of the University Kassel, students will be placed with host families and attend NWACC class sessions on campus. We will be also sightseeing Kassel, including the Witzenhausen campus with studies related to sustainability, WWII bunker in the Weinberg (social psychology), Brothers Grimm Museum (philosophy), Herkules monument, Wilhelmshoehe Palace and Park with the Lions Castle (construction of the palace for Napoleon’s brother Jerome), … There will be excursions to various cities related to topics covered in the courses.
