INTERCULTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNICATION

 

The Study Abroad Program in Indonesia focuses on intercultural communication experiences. Indonesia, as the fourth largest country and the largest Muslim majority country in the world, offers a rich array of cultures, languages, and ecosystems that students will get to experience through daily interactions with Indonesian students, faculty, and community members. Students will also have the opportunity for field trips in Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Bali, and two national parks, along with major cultural and religious locations on the islands of Java and Bali.
