< 1 min read

YEREVAN, Armenia – The American University of Armenia (AUA) is pleased to announce housing scholarships for the AUA Summer 2014 Program.

Summer 2014 participants will now be able to stay at the newly-renovated Garabedian Building of the Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU), in Yerevan’s Zeytoun district, fifteen minutes by car from AUA, for a total of $300 for three weeks (housing availability pending sufficient demand).

Comprised of three weeks at Armenia’s very own university offering a global education, AUA Summer 2014 is an opportunity to get acquainted with the legacy and culture of the Armenian people in an American-accredited institution, while at the same time getting in touch with modern-day Armenia.

The lectures and presentations of the Armenian Heritage & Culture course will be interspersed with excursions to concerts or the theater, historical sites in Armenia, as well as visits to museums and galleries.

The AUA Summer 2014 program is open both to current students and also to individuals generally interested in the topic areas covered by the course. Because of AUA’s American accreditation, the courses will carry units which may be transferable to your home university according to its guidelines.

The program will run from June 9 to 27, 2014.
