KU's Summer Language Program in Ukraine

[Lyne Tumlinson]

The University of Kansas offers a unique opportunity for graduate
students to study intensive Ukrainian language and area studies
(political transition, society, economics, culture) in their 6-week
summer program in L'viv, Ukraine.  Instruction is provided by
regular faculty of L'viv State University who have experience
teaching American students.  The program offers 115 class contact
hours of language instruction.  The students will also work individual
L'viv faculty on a research topic associated with their stateside
field of concentration.  The program offers numerous teacher-
accompanied excursions in and around L'viv, with longer visits
to Kiev, Olesko, and the Carpathians.  An on-site Program Director
from the KU faculty accompanies the students.  Participants stay
with pre-screened Ukrainian families in L'viv.

DATES:  14 June - 24 July 1998.  Students are free to travel in Europe
before or after the program.

Each student receives 6 hours of Ukrainian language and area study credit
from the University of Kansas.  This credit is transferrable to the student's
home institution.

COST & FINANCIAL AID: Approximately $1850.  PLEASE NOTE:
three full Scholarships are still available!
