- Singapore, Singapore
This May Term program provides students with the unique opportunity to
embark on an intensive three-week journey into the world of
International Relations and Global Studies (IRG 320F) with Dr. Wang in
both Vietnam and Singapore.
Our journey commences in the vibrant city of Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam,
where we will spend three days immersing ourselves in the intricacies
of the global supply chain and delving into the region's rich history
and culture. Following our enriching experience in Ho Chi Minh City,
we will then transition to the bustling global hub of Singapore. Known
for its prominence in trade, culture, business, and international
affairs, Singapore offers an exceptional opportunity to explore
various aspects of economic development, political dynamics, and
international organizations all within a single, central location.
