Cross Cultural Perspectives in Leisure & Tourism
Stay tuned for news about this and other study abroad opportunities in RLS!
Earn college credit as we visit Ireland, France, and Italy and study tourism and leisure
through a cross-cultural perspective. The great city parks like St. Stephen's Green
(Dublin), Bois de Boulogne (Paris), and Villa Borghese (Rome) will allow us observe
the everyday leisure behaviors of people in other countries and cultures. Enjoy classic
tourist sites like the Guinness Brewery in Dublin, the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and
the Colosseum in Rome. Visits to selected national parks and world heritage sites
will allow us to observe first-hand the different approaches to preservation and interpretation.
And visits to some of the most famous museums and historical sites in the world will
provide opportunities to gain a better understanding of tourism within the scope of
recreation and leisure services.
