On Location Courses
On Location Courses are led by Roberts Wesleyan University faculty to places around the world. Courses meet several times during the semester in preparation for an on location experience structured to enrich the classroom learning. The travel portion of these courses ranges from one to four weeks and is billed to students as a course fee.
Past offerings have included courses such as Fine Arts in London, TESOL in Japan, Transcultural Nursing in Costa Rica, Global Honors in Brazil, Faith and Technology in Germany, and Social Work courses in Israel, Estonia, and South Korea. Course offerings change from year to year.
