Bring history to life while exploring the charms of “old” and “new” Asia in dynamic Vietnam! 

Considering summer courses? Travel to Vietnam and embark on the experience of a lifetime, all while earning 3-6 credits! Experience Vietnam’s distinctive history: from the French colonial period, to the war with the United States, and finally, to its emergence as a unified Communist nation, you’ll come to understand how Vietnam came to its current standing in today’s international community.

Explore the Cu Chi Tunnels in Ho Chi Minh city, an immense network of underground passages used by the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War before traveling to the beautiful capital city of Hanoi, filled with old world charm. Experience 600 year old architecture in the Old Quarter of Hanoi and shop for elegant silk clothing and souvenirs in the Silk Village. The program culminates in a magical overnight cruise down Ha Long Bay.
