UC San Diego Global Seminars are summer study abroad experiences led by a UCSD professor. These programs are five weeks in duration. Students enroll in two courses for a total of eight UCSD units. Class sizes are between fifteen and thirty students, so there are excellent opportunities for interaction with some of the best professors at UCSD. All courses are taught in English, but several programs have some very basic, elementary language instruction to help students navigate the local community. The Programs Abroad Office assists students with advising, application, financial aid, predeparture orientation, and reentry issues. Special study abroad scholarships are available. For more information, consult the UC San Diego Global Seminars section of the Programs Abroad Web site at http://globalseminar.ucsd.edu.
