 <\/p>\n

Students in the program conduct ethnographic interviews while fully immersing in the culture, history, and beautiful landscape of Greece. Our goal is to produce data that can be turned into publishable papers in refereed journals.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Students step into how and why Greece was constructed as a magnet destination for European and American travelers in the 19th and 20th centuries: why during the 1950s and 1960s the Greeks were forced to emigrate to Western Europe and to other western countries in search of a better life; why Greece became, especially from the 1990s onwards, a host country for immigrants from the Balkans and elsewhere; and how the phenomenon of mass tourism impacted the economy as well as the culture of Greece.<\/p>\n

Explore the extraordinary history, culture, food, and stunning scenery of Greece, and\u00a0interview Athens’ residents about the impact of\u00a0sustainability\u00a0on their lives.<\/p>\n

Participants also enjoy the wonderful cuisine of Greece, visit major historical sites and museums , including the Acropolis, the New Acropolis Museum, Olympia (where the Olympic Games began), the\u00a0classical theater at Epidauros,\u00a0as well as\u00a0travel to scenic islands like Aegina & Hydra.<\/p>\n

Students earn 17 UW credits. Apply by January 31, 2026. There are no prerequisites, and all UW students can apply.<\/p>\n

Applicants may qualify for a\u00a0UW study abroad program scholarship<\/a>\u00a0worth up to $2,500 as well as the\u00a0Theodore Kaltsounis Scholarship<\/a>\u00a0(deadline May 1,\u00a02025) of the UW Hellenic Studies Program worth up to $3,000.<\/p>\n

For more information and to apply, please visit our\u00a0website<\/a>\u00a0or contact Program\u00a0Co-Director, Dr. Taso G. Lagos\u00a0at\u00a0<\/b>taso@uw.edu<\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
