Our approach to faculty-led programs and short-term study abroad is in our name: custom. Like a fingerprint, each faculty-led custom program is unique, and our capabilities across 110+ countries are unmatched. By incorporating your curriculum goals, we source one-of-a-kind experiences that better prepare your students for future careers by exposing them to international culture, businesses, and academic engagements. From selecting your destination to identifying interactive engagements that bring your curriculum to life, our thematic approach ensures that your program is finetuned to the learning outcomes and unique needs of you and your students.
Once your program is developed, you’ll work directly with an account manager who will be your champion, working directly with our large team of logistical experts, curriculum specialists, and on-the-ground partners. Our long-time university partners see their account managers as an integral part of their own university teams, ensuring that your program is uniquely yours each and every year.

Whether you are a student of politics, science, theater, literature, architecture, or philosophy, your studies were born here—a period of history unlike any before or since. Travel programs can take a broad look at the remarkable progress of the era or delve into a topic of interest related to a more specific curriculum. (Many groups also choose to visit Italy for a full look at the two great civilizations of the era.)
Our study of mythology today is largely due to the art and literature in which the ancient Greek citizens celebrated their idols. See these works firsthand and explore how the gods were worshipped by believers. Explore the evolution of myth’s role in society, from pre-Christianity theology to a kind of folklore that existed alongside monotheistic religious practice.
Explore the real-time questions relevant to Greece’s very difficult road through debt crisis and its current relationship with its trading partners in Europe. Though this developed economy was strong for decades, some economists have now reclassified it as an emerging market again. Study its effort to recover, especially in contrast to neighbors Italy or Spain with a “compare and contrast” itinerary.
