Human and Animal Interactions in Europe (AS 697.05)
| Cluster Courses |
|
This short-term study abroad program will allow
you to surround yourself with a different culture, geography,
community/government infrastructure, and rich history to directly
compare how those, and other aspects of that culture, shape and
impact the role that animals have in that respective society. This course offers an opportunity for you to broaden your educational program, and gain a greater appreciation for cultural diversity, and provides a means to utilize skills and knowledge you have learned from multiple disciplines. This is the second course in a two-course series (ANIM SCI 494 & ANIM SCI 697.05) designed to give you an appreciation for how history, government, geography and infrastructure can impact the use of animals within our societies. In conjunction, the two courses will provide you with an opportunity and a forum in which you can compare our mid-western culture (especially focusing on the role of animals in our immediate communities; ANIM SCI 494) with that of other cultures (and directly comparing it with European cultures via travel to Ireland; ANIM SCI 697.05). These courses require you to be actively engaged in the learning process, as most of the activities take place outside the traditional classroom via field trips and study abroad activities that involve experiencing and witnessing human animal interaction in real-world settings.
