In August, 11 students from RAC traveled to the US in order to participate in a study program in South Carolina. During the program they worked with students from FH Bonn-Rhein-Sieg, Coastal Carolina University and lots of international students.

They also interacted with students from Tokyo Denki University in Japan. Students participated in lectures and classes on a wide variety of subjects. This way they had the opportunity to find out in what ways the academic environments of German universities and US universities differ - and whether studying in the US for a semester or even a year might be an attractive option. Excursions, social and cultural activities, sports event and other elements gave the students a chance to experience some glimpses of American culture - not only in a classroom setting. The participants also had to complete a number of assignments for their classes. The successful participants of the program were awarded a certificate during the final ceremony.

Meet the students and find out about their experiences on 21 November 2006, 1:15pm (new language lab, F015).
