Take a study abroad course in Oslo and London in Summer 2017! Explore current and historical migration issues in Oslo and London, two global cities that house a large number of immigrants. We will spend extended time in both cities, studying their immigration histories and current migration issues through guided field trips and small field assignments. In Oslo, students will learn about the legacies of the Viking explorations and the more recent migrations of Somalis, Pakistanis, Poles, and Swedes into Oslo. In London, guided tours will explore migrant settlement in three historic neighborhoods, Brixton, Brick Lane, and Kilbury. The course will be held online June 1-6, 2017, followed by a stay in Oslo and London from June 8 to July 2nd 2017. We will hold an information session for the study abroad program on Monday, November 7th at 2 pm in BGB 406. Please attend this meeting if you are interested in the study abroad program. I will discuss what is included in the course fee, the course format, field trips, accommodations, and practical information about Oslo and London. Mimi will provide tips for studying abroad. If you can't attend the meeting you can ask me questions about the study abroad program at [log in to unmask] Mimi and I hope to see you on Monday.
