MMW Global Seminars

Global Seminar in Rome, Italy

MMW offers summer Global Seminars abroad, which we have taught on every continent except Antarctica.

Led by MMW faculty, Global Seminars provide enriching opportunities abroad in a small learning environment, with15-28 students in each program.

The five-week MMW Global Seminars combine two courses (8-unit total) which fulfill one MMW course (MMW-014, MMW-015, or MMW-122 for transfer students), as well as other general education or graduation requirements.

Applications open in fall, and a program fee is required. To learn more, review the UC San Diego Study Abroad website or submit a question through VAC to a Study Abroad advisor.
