Brazil – Winter, 2008. (Co-Directors, Dr. Sue Barton and Chad Nelson, RLA)
This study experience is a month-long journey of contrasts. From the busy and bustling city of Rio de Janeiro, to the serene Pantanal Region, and the exotic Amazon Rain Forest, students will study Brazilian culture, nature and design and compare it to their North America paradigm.
Stockholm/Paris/Barcelona – Winter, 2009. (Co-Director, Dr. Tony Middlebrooks, University of Delaware Leadership Program).
An individual who aspires to become a leader in any creative field will want to join us on this study experience focused on design and leadership in creativity-based organizations. We will delve into innovation in advertising, fashion, garden design, architecture, textiles and product design. Students will gain an understanding of the design processes and influences unique to individual creative fields.
