Aside from the programs on the previous pages, Memorial schools and faculties offer a range of possibilities for studying abroad. While not an exhaustive list, what follows is a sample of the possibilities. If you are interested in studying abroad, contact the faculty or school of your interest and inquire about study aboard programs.

The Faculty of Arts is affiliated with a Canada-European Union Exchange agreement. However, the single destination attracting significant numbers of arts students is Memorial's Harlow campus. Each year the Faculty of Arts attempts to offer two programs, one in the fall and one in the spring. In fall 2002, the first program offered under the new European Studies minor will be offered by Drs. Steven Wolinetz, Political Science, and James Hiller, History. This program is titled War, Reconstruction and European Union. For more, see www.mun.ca/arts/.
