SETU Waterford has been providing popular and high-quality study abroad and summer programs to US colleges for over a decade. The programs are managed by a highly-experienced, dedicated and professional team with a distinguished track-record in international education, particularly with US students.
Academic Program
The emphasis in the programs is on experiential learning, with interactive classes supplemented by field trips, workshops, visits to historic sites, places of interest and practical demonstrations.
Programs are delivered by lecturing staff from WIT’s faculty with experience in international education. Programs mix substantive academic content with site visits and demonstrations, as appropriate. Each program contains at least one longer visit to a site of historic or cultural importance relevant to the program.
The immersion of students in a culture different to their own is key to a successful international experience, and these short programs maximise opportunities for such learning in a safe and secure environment.
Schedule
These programs are available in January, May and during the summer months (June-August). SETU Waterford is flexible and will work with US partners to agree a schedule that best facilitates student participation.
Credits
Programs typically attract 3 credits from US colleges.
