This program, administered by the Nanovic Institute for European Studies at the University of Notre Dame, provides substantial support for faculty to design and lead short-term, site-specific student trips and seminars throughout Europe. The goal is to enrich student learning and engagement with European contexts, cultures, and issues through immersive, faculty-guided experiences. Trips typically last 5–7 days and may take place during academic breaks or the summer, and while they may connect to a credit-bearing course, this is not required.
