HOBART AND WILLIAM SMITH COLLEGES Center for (CGE) CARMARTHEN, WALES Global Education CARMARTHEN, WALES
About Carmarthen Southwest Wales has been an important cornerstone in Welsh history and culture over many centuries and its influence is still great today. As a main tourist area, there's plenty to enjoy. From the bustle of town life to the quiet tranquility of the countryside and breathtaking beauty of its sandy beaches, southwest Wales offers the opportunity for a diverse and varied lifestyle. Welsh is still spoken widely in this region. Located on the River Tywi, Carmarthen is a commercial centre of nearly 20,000 people at the heart of a large and thriving area. A market town, it has a good mix of traditional and modern shopping, leisure facilities and nightlife.
The Program Hobart and William Smith Colleges offer students the chance to study in Wales through its affiliation with University of Wales Trinity St. David. Founded in 1848, the university has a student population mostly from southern Wales but also from other regions of Britain, Western Europe and the U.S. The university is known for its commitment to community engagement and this commitment permeates its innovative curriculum. HWS students will have the oppor- tunity to live and take classes alongside Welsh and international classmates. To facilitate engagement with the local community, all students must participate in an academic or extracurricular immersion experience; this may include a credit-bearing internship, a school practicum, or a service-learning project.
University of Wales Trinity St. David, Carmarthen Courses Students who participate in this program can select courses in a variety of academic areas, including but not limited to: community development, computer science, education, psychology, religion, sociology, and studio art. One of the courses students will take will be a credit-bearing internship or service-learning placement. All courses are taught by University of Wales Trinity St. David faculty. As liberal arts colleges, HWS by policy does not award credit for courses in business. For specific information about courses and the program, please consult the website for interna- tional students at http://www.trinitysaintdavid.ac.uk/en/courses/undergraduatecourses/
Academic Focus Due to the wide range of courses offered, this program can accommodate students from a variety of disciplines. It will be of particular interest to those studying studio art, education, religious studies, sociology and psychology.
Eligibility This program is open to sophomores, juniors and seniors in good academic and social standing with a minimum GPA of 2.5. Due to the challenging nature of study abroad, student academic and disciplinary records will be carefully screened.
Accommodations Students reside in residence halls administered by the University of Wales Trinity St. David. A typical residence provides fully-furnished single rooms with shared kitchens in attractive settings. Most students select self-catered accommodation and prepare meals in their shared kitchens. Students may also choose catered accommodation, which includes two meals per day during the week.
