Projects by student participants in the spring and summer 2008
Study Abroad programs of Kansas State University
and the College
of Architecture,
Planning, and Design will be on display from September 15-October 10 in the
Chang Gallery and the first floor hallway of the east wing of Seaton
Hall. The exhibition is open to the public without charge. Hours of
the Chang Gallery are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. weekdays.
Students in the college’s degree-granting programs are given the option of
participating in study abroad during and following their fourth year. During
the spring and summer of 2008, 74 students in the college chose to study abroad. Of
the student participants, 60 (51 percent of the fifth-year class) are
fifth-year students, 11 are now third- or fourth-year students in the interior
architecture and product design program, and 3 are fourth-year students in the
regional and community planning program, the first time students in that
program have been able to participate in study abroad.
According to Lynn Ewanow, associate dean and director of international programs
for the College of Architecture, Planning and Design, participation in study
abroad programs benefits students in all majors, but students of architecture,
interior architecture and product design, landscape architecture, and regional
and community planning are particularly well served through the experience of
studying in unfamiliar environments as it heightens cultural and historical
awareness; improves self-reliance; encourages better understanding of global
economics, politics, and societies; and broadens professional horizons. She
says, “The College of Architecture, Planning, and Design is committed to
enhancing the study abroad experience for its students and supporting the
emphasis on international education which is part of the K-State strategic
plan.”
