Global Learning
The Department of Theatre and Dance has an ongoing commitment to supporting international programing that supports student study in dance, theatre or other themes through travel abroad. Education Abroad programs provide students with opportunities to grow and experience the world. Currently, our faculty offers faculty-led study abroad programs to Cuba and Europe; see below for a full description of Ritmo y Arroz: Cuba Through Dance and Food and Theatre in Europe: Past and Present. Still others on our faculty contribute to the university’s global learning initiatives through their teaching and research.
The mission of internationalization efforts at Appalachian is to develop awareness, knowledge, appreciation, and respect of cultural differences in both domestic and international contexts in its students, faculty, staff, and the surrounding communities.
