NYU in Athens 2013!
Dear MGSA Members,
This
 is a call for applications to the NYU in Athens Program, held this 
summer from June 29th until August 10th. NYU in Athens is a six-week 
summer program in Athens, designed for both undergraduate and graduate 
students from all U.S. Universities. Students can take up to 8 
transferable credits and fully immerse in the culture, society, and 
history of Greece and the Mediterranean. NYU in Athens offers Modern 
Greek language courses at all levels, as well as courses on archaeology,
 history, literature and photography.


Students participate in site visits that include but
 are not limited to archaeological site and museums, cultural activities
 such as concerts, plays and dance performances. Participants also go on
 weekend program trips to islands such as Crete and Santorini.


The past few years, NYU in Athens has also designed a
 special program that addresses all aspects of the European debt crisis,
 including the cultural, social, political, economic and historical 
effects of the crisis on Greece and Southern Europe. This part of the 
program offers specialized courses, guest speakers, program seminars, 
and site visits, and will encourage students to actively experience and 
expand on the current situation in Greece through original projects that
 range from personal blogs to creative group initiatives. 


We are very happy to offer college students the 
opportunity to be a part of the rapid developments that are undeniably 
shaping the current sociopolitical landscape of Europe. The program is 
open to students of any background, but may be applicable to 
anthropology, archaeology, politics, history, comparative literature, 
philosophy, photography, journalism, classics, economics, visual arts, 
theater and Hellenic Studies. 


Students at NYU in Athens stay at the five star 
boutique hotel St. George Lycabettus, in the beautiful Athenian 
neighborhood of Kolonaki.
The program accepts applications on a rolling basis and is open to students from all U.S universities.

With kind regards,Anna E. Venetsanou
