This interdisciplinary ACM program focuses on development issues in Africa and the challenges of building a modern independent nation. University of Dar es Salaam faculty members offer courses in culture and society, political and economic development, and Swahili language. Students also complete an independent field project under the guidance of program staff or university faculty. Students live with families in Dar es Salaam, and local excursions and a rural village stay supplement the academic program.
The program is only offered for a spring semester. No previous language study is required. For more information: Nation-Building in Southern Africa
