Spend a summer researching in Germany with the Leibniz University Hannover- Summer Science and Engineering Projects Study Abroad Program!

Highlights include:

• Full-time project placements with close faculty supervision in research facilities at Leibniz University Hannover, one of the TU 9.
• No knowledge of German required, but for those looking to develop their language skills, Hannover’s dialect is especially learner-friendly.
• An organized program of professional, cultural, and social experiences, including an orientation week, field trips, company visits, and group activities.
• A local Study Buddy who will meet you on arrival, help you settle in, and answer questions that arise during your stay.
• Housing in a single dorm room, local insurance, and free regional public transportation.
• The opportunity to experience German life in Hannover, known as a “Green City” and “City of Short Distances” – a great home base for exploring near and far in your free time.

Participants in this exchange program pay their regular Purdue tuition for the summer term plus a program fee.  Purdue Moves Scholarships are available to eligible participants. 

Applications are currently under review!  Interested students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible through the Purdue Study Abroad website.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW: French Culture, Food & Health (SA 10223/NUTR 39800). This program provides students the opportunity to earn academic credit while exploring the rich culinary, cultural and health characteristics of France. Scientists have been baffled about the French Paradox: the observation that the French eat such rich food and yet their rates of heart disease are less than that of Americans. The course highlights the scientific and social issues surrounding this contradiction while simultaneously immersing students in the culture of French food and eating patterns. Students enjoy the peaceful surroundings and people of a French town between cooking lessons from French chefs and daily excursions to local farmers’ markets, a vineyard, an oil press, a chocolate maker, various restaurants and more.

STUDENTS: Any student in any major* in good academic standing is eligible for this course. There are no pre- requisites, nor language or skill requirements. Past students have been from at least 24 different majors.

Maximum enrollment is approximately 15 students, which is limited by the capacity of our accommodations. Students who participate enjoy getting to know their fellow students in a small, relaxed setting.                                                                                                                                                             *French majors may participate, but should be aware that this course does not meet the French department’s requirements for language immersion.

TRAVEL OVERSEAS: May 23-31, 2020. We will stay 6 nights in a villa in the town of Riorges, and take day trips to nearby cities/attractions. The last day/night will be in Lyon, considered the gastronomy center of France (http://www.cnn.com/travel/article/lyon-outshines-paris/index.html)

ACADEMIC DETAILS: Students earn 2 credits for a letter grade. You will spend 6 hours in class, spread across 4 (mandatory) class meetings in Feb, March and April, all at 5:30 – 7:00pm. During this time, we learn about various factors related to French food, culture and health, how they compare to American food, culture and health, prepare you for your experience abroad.

COST: The program fee is ESTIMATED at $3100; when it’s finalized, it will be updated on our webpage. The fee will include all meals (except 2), housing and transportation within France for the week. The fee is billed by the University after your register for SA 10223, and that won’t be until March at the earliest. Other expenses you should factor in are the cost of a passport and airfare. ***A $500 deposit that will go towards the full payment fee is due preferably by the end of the fall semester, but definitely before our first class meeting on February. This deposit is what’s used to reserve your spot in the program; until it’s paid, your spot is tentative.***
