Excursions
The
JYM model of integrated study abroad extends well beyond the classroom.
Our goal is to guide students towards the moment where it becomes
second nature for them to take full advantage of the many cultural
resources and experiences surrounding them. We arrange both group
excursions and facilitate independent field study ...
As
Part of Orientation
Upon
arrival JYM students are introduced to the LMU Munich, the city
of Munich, as well as its immediate surrounding areas. Group trips
to popular destinations such as Neuschwanstein, Kloster Andechs
and more are a regular part of the fall Orientation.
As
an Integral Part of JYM Coursework
JYM
area studies courses utilize Munich's prestigious cultural, educational
and historical resources as an integral part of the curriculum whenever
possible. Courses may include visits and/or assignments related
to museums, archives, theatrical performances, or even travel beyond
Munich.
As
a Requirement of the Honors Program for the Study of European Ideas
JYM students who sign up for the JYM Honors Program are expected
to attend or participate in a specific
number of academic and cultural events which count as partial fulfillment
of the requirements for their Honors Portfolio.
As
Optional European City Seminars
JYM
arranges optional European City Seminars throughout the year that
allow students to discover and learn about major European cities
in a way independent travel
alone is hard to achieve. These trips are not covered by
the Program Fee, and cost approximately 300 € each. Past trips
have included Vienna, Prague, Budapest, Lubjiana and more.
