This three week Maymester 2009 study abroad and cultural experience program exposes you to the rich cultural, religious and historical heritage of Armenia and geo-political and economic developments in post-Soviet transition economies. We begin with an orientation at the UGA campus, followed by 21 days in Armenia. The group will be located in Armenia's capital, Yerevan, and will make daily field trips to various parts of the country, including visits to international, governmental and non-governmental organizations (the Parliament, Government, Constitutional Court, U.S. Embassy, UN and EU Missions) and domestic businesses, diamond cutting and processing plants, export-import enterprises, and more. Students will be exposed to Armenian culture, language and history through seminars and visits to historical and contemporary museums and monuments, most of which more than 1,000-1,500 years old.
