Czech Republic: Central European Studies (ACM)

Located in the historic capital of Moravia, the ACM Czech Republic program is based at Palacky University in Olomouc, the architecturally distinguished medieval capital of Moravia. The program offers a firsthand opportunity to engage in the study of the social and cultural transformation taking place on national and regional levels after the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe. Courses offered in English include the History of East Central Europe, Society and Politics in the Czech Republic, Modern Czech Literature, and intensive Czech Language. Field research opportunities will enable students to explore topics of individual interest in such areas as sociology, economics, arts and culture. Extensive field trips are offered within the Czech Republic and to Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, and Poland. Students are housed in dormitories with Czech roommates. Eligibility: Especially recommended for students in history, political science, economics and the other social sciences as well as those with an interest in art and architecture. Students interested in Slavic studies, languages and literature are also encouraged to apply.
