Aix-en-Provence, France

Located just north of Marseille in southern France near the Mediterranean Sea, Aix-en-Provence offers the quintessential French experience with historic architecture, gorgeous hilltop scenery, and exquisite food.

Paris: ~~empire + colony~~ | diasporas + assemblies

The vibrancy and diversity of the city of Paris is a microcosm of France and its overseas departments and territories (DOM TOM). The peoples, lands and resources of the DOM TOM remain entangled with France as vestiges of former colonies, as do now-independent formerly colonies such as Algeria and Senegal. These regions have all provided France with a wealth of resources, materials, and cultural practices that are inseparable from what constitutes France and French culture today. However, while the world has long celebrated French culture, from cuisine to couture, art, architecture and public spaces of assembly, rarely do we interrogate from where they originate and how they came to be, nor do we question these from both aesthetic and ethical perspectives—particularly vis-à-vis colony.

This six-credit summer program dives deeply into these burning and timely questions.

CAPLA Abroad - France is open to students of all majors and minors who have completed the third year of their undergraduate program or are enrolled in a graduate program. CAPLA, BA DAP, and Applied Humanities are particularly encouraged to apply and will receive preferred acceptance to this program.

What is amAZing about Europe?

Travel is easy within the continent. Students with busy schedules and a tight budget can find cheap options whether by plane, train, or bus. You can find yourself in a completely different country within a couple of hours.
UArizona programs in Europe have courses available to accommodate many majors and minors. Students who choose to study a language can truly immerse themselves, while there are also plenty of courses taught in English. A variety of research programs are also offered during the summer for STEM students.
The history! Many of the best museums with timeless art and relics can be found in Europe, along with medieval castles, cathedrals, and historical ruins.
Europe has a diverse cuisine for every palate. Whether fish and chips is your cup of tea or herring with chopped onions, you can bet that many culinary delights await you. Festivals are also popular in Europe and a great way to sample the local fare.
Experiences you’ll remember forever. Eat churros with hot chocolate in Barcelona, smile at Mona Lisa in the Louvre, climb the steps of Castelgrande. Contact a Study Abroad Coordinator to get started on your journey!
