We're excited to announce a new opportunity to study abroad: a study tour in Benin Republic in May of 2025. Join faculty leader Assistant Professor Brian Smithson for this 4-credit study tour, off the beaten path in West Africa!

This program investigates the transformation of Benin - once a site of warring empires stirred up by the trans-Atlantic slave trade - into a major tourist destination. Check out the program details here. The program application deadline is January 1, 2025.

*Significant scholarships and need-based aid are available.*

Feel free to contact Professor Smithson for more details, and make an appointment with the Office of International Education to discuss the program application, costs and more.
