I learned so much about several different cultures and I improved my language skills exponentially! I was able to do the things that I love doing and achieve several goals of mine, so it definitely was worthwhile. A student - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
About
Spend your summer immersing yourself in two different cities, countries and cultures. The CIEE Paris-Dakar Summer Multi-Site program allows you to spend seven weeks between Europe and Africa, learning firsthand about French and Senegalese societies today and exploring the impact of French history and culture on modern-day Senegal.
Through homestays, cultural activities and Francophone Studies courses exploring literature, politics, religion, and film, you’ll develop a better understanding of the historical and cultural relationships that exist between France and Senegal today.
With the Paris-Dakar summer multi-site program you will:
- Study abroad in two amazing destinations and explore the ways in which France and French Culture have influenced Senegalese literature, culture, and society.
- Explore various themes and topics in Francophone Studies through innovative courses and excursions that help connect two distinctly different parts of the world.
- Use your French language skills to communicate with local communities and learn about the impact of French culture on Senegalese people today.
