Program Description
Based in Krakow, Poland, the KIIS Slavic Europe program introduces
students to the history and culture of Eastern Europe. The striking city
of Krakow has a large student population, active social life & beautiful
display of European architecture. Classes utilize local attractions. All
students will take part in a group excursion to the Nazi death camps
at Auschwitz-Birkenau. In past years students have visited military
fortresses and other war monuments, attended an international student
conference, viewed the Carpathian Mountains, and tasted traditional
Polish dishes in the countryside. A four day long free week-end allows
students to explore neighboring cities, such as Berlin, Vienna, Prague or
L’viv or to explore other parts of Poland. After three weeks in Krakow, the
program concludes with a fourth week in Warsaw.
