SENEGAL: SPRING SEMESTER OF FULL YEAR

NOTE: THIS PROGRAM IS NO LONGER RUNNING AS AN "ITHACA PROGRAM" BUT AS AN AFFILIATE.

This Hamline University program enrolls exchange students alongside Senagalese students at the University Gaston Berger in Saint Louis. Students will begin learning the local African language, Wolof, in addition to taking courses selected from the following departments at the University: African Literature, French Literature, Comparative Literature, Economics, Geography, History, Law, Philosophy, Political Science, and Sociology. All courses are taught in French, and students must have intermediate or advanced French language skills. There will be three organized excursions during the semester, which will include the area in and around Saint Louis, a day at Djoudj, and four days in Nokolokoba, a wild game refuge.
