Temple Summer in Jamaica Information Session

    Education Abroad

    Interested in studying in Jamaica this summer? It's more than beach and sun. In this program, you'll explore the REAL Jamaica through community-service learning and educational tourism, examining such questions as: Why the poverty? What's with gender and class? Is it race, color or ... what? What makes us '"American" (or not)?

     

    Students enroll in one 3-credit Service Learning course (new this year!) and engage in a service/community-based project with a local partner organization based on your interests/major and the needs and interests of the local community. Students enroll one of the following options among the three cross-listed courses, with all participants earning three credits and engaging in the course as a cohesive group:

    • Sociology 2130: Selected Topics in Sociology
    • Social Work 4000: Special Topics in Social Work
    • Education 2224: Service Learning

    Join new program director, Dr. Cheri Carter from Temple’s School of Social Work and program alumna Tatiana Bazile, at one of the upcoming information sessions to learn more.
