U2 Ukraine (in Poland) Summer Program, an intensive summer course organized by the University of Alberta
This exploratory program, currently in its 2nd year, allows students the flexibility to experience the Ukrainian language and culture in one location. U2 Ukraine is a four-week program focused on studying Ukrainian in Warsaw, a rich centre for Ukrainian culture, and also known for its architecture, museums, cultural sites and cuisine. Students will have an opportunity to enrol in either Intermediate or Advanced language-level sections. Collaboratively we will explore the “Ukrainian Warsaw” and its cultural aspects through a number of excursions, engagements with the Ukrainian community, workshops, and participation in Ukrainian events, including explorations of Ukrainian cuisine in Warsaw.
Costs include tuition fees based on *6 credits (domestic and international rates vary); airfare; reasonable living expenses & accommodations at or near the U of Warsaw; a $250.00 CAD Education Abroad Nomination Fee. Enquiries should be addressed to the Undergraduate advisor for Ukrainian in the department of Modern Languages and Cultural Studies, Dr. Alla Nedashkivska.
