Off-Site Study
Offsite study allows students do some of their coursework outside
of seminary. Students spend a term or more studying at other
institutions of higher learning across the globe. The current
opportunities for off-site study that are listed below. Additional
opportunities for off-site study are available through
http://www.augsburg.edu/global/.
In addition to PLTS and Luther Seminary's offerings, special travel/study
seminars are offered year round by the
Center for Global Education
at Augsburg College. Students may visit and study in such places as
South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mexico, and Central America. Seminars are
designed so that students learn directly from the people visited and
experience face-to-face encounters with persons from all segments of
society. These one- to three-week seminars seek to expand the
worldview of the student and deepen the understanding of cultural
and global issues that confront the church.
Costs vary according to the destination and length of each
seminar. Some offerings fulfill Cross Cultural Experience course requirements. For more

Maeker or the Center for Global
Education at (612) 330-1159.
