Offered during the 1st term of Summer quarter, this program is an innovative and intensive five-week program that provides an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to study advanced level Portuguese literature, culture, and linguistics in Curitiba and other regions of Brazil. Students will be able to increase their Portuguese language ability through classes taught in Portuguese and participation in various cultural immersion activities during their stay in a Portuguese language environment. They will also enhance their experience of contemporary Brazilian life by living with host families. Brazil's multi-cultural society offers a diversity of cultural experiences in the arts, music, dance, and film. This program will focus on literature, particularly those works associated with the popular religious movements over the last century. Brazil's literary tradition not only maps Brazilian history and social change, but defines modern-day Brazilian society and historical conscience. Field trips in Curitiba and other areas of Brazil are designed to broaden students' exposure to Brazil's distinct regional cultures.

The Ohio State University has an agreement with the Council for International Educational Exchange, of which Brazil is a member. Students who want to spend one year in So Paulo, Brazil may take advantage of this agreement.

In cooperation with the Office of International Education , the OSU Department of Spanish and Portuguese offers interested students the opportunity to study in Curitiba, Brazil at the Federal University of Paraná. Students may choose to fulfill their language requirement in Portuguese by completing classes from Portuguese 102 to Portuguese 104.

Portuguese Majors may apply; contact Prof. Richard Gordon at gordon.397@osu.edu for more information.
