[CSENews] Study Abroad in Dubai

[Teresa Isela VanderSloot]

Michigan State is considering a summer study abroad program that would
offer certain courses of interest to engineering students at the MSU 
Dubai instructional site this summer, from May 14 - July 1 (first summer 
session).

Courses offered that would be of particular interest to engineering 
students are IAH207, WRA110, MTH234.  Classes will run from 
Sunday through Wednesday/Thursday between May 16-June 30.  Students can 
then stay abroad for travel, or return to the US.  Housing will be 
available through July 1 for students at a dorm-type residence located 
about 15-30 minutes from the Dubai campus, with free transportation 
(bus) for students between housing and campus.

Tuition will be assessed at the normal East Lansing summer tuition rate. 
 Additional study abroad costs (including all lodging, food, insurance, 
visa, etc) will run approximately $3000-3500.  Further additional costs 
will be for airfare (about $1500) and spending money, including any 
additional travel/trips.

In order to determine if this proposed program will actually run, we 
need to assess the interest as quickly and accurately as possible. If 
you are interested in spending 6 weeks studying engineering-related 
courses at MSU Dubai this summer, please provide your name and describe 
your likelihood of participating by responding to me by March 10.
