I learned that I'm in love with my best friend. - West Texas A&M University View Entire Review
Even after a year of living in Tbilisi, this course offered me not only a review of the history and politics of the region, but also insight into a number of different aspects I had not previously focused on. If you are interested in specializing in Caucasian affairs, there is truly no better program available. - Georgetown University View Entire Review

About

The South Caucasus has taken on unprecedented strategic and political importance for Russia, NATO, and the U.S. in recent years. While rich in natural resources, scenic beauty, and vibrant cultures, the region continues to be hampered by age-old conflicts and political instability. Based in Tbilisi, Georgia, this five-week summer program explores cultural identity and nationalism, development strategies, the emergence of new political systems and parties, and ongoing efforts to foster peace throughout the region. Language instruction in Armenian, Azerbaijani, Chechen, Georgian, or Russian is available at all levels.
