Architecture Program

The MUDEC Architecture and Interior Design Cohort allows students to continue their architecture and interior design studies in Luxembourg. Each fall semester, architecture and interior design students study with fellow Miamians in a 15th-century château and live with local host families. Professors include both Miami faculty and design professionals living in Luxembourg. Students experience the local culture firsthand and have multiple travel opportunities across Europe, including a "study tour" course that includes a 5-day-long field trip to another European country.

ARC and ID students can easily obtain an additional 16 credit hours with 11 of those in the major itself, keeping you on track for graduation and major requirements.

The Architecture cohort currently runs during the Fall semester. Contact the program for more information and to begin the application process. ARC and ID students should also apply directly through the MUDEC Semester program application.

Kinesiology, Nutrition, and Health (KNH)

Each fall semester the Kinesiology, Nutrition and Health department offers the opportunity for a group of students to live and learn in Luxembourg with department faculty. Students are able to complete required coursework in their major and in the Miami Global Plan. Possible collaboration also exists with a neighboring university that focuses on health, exercise and sports.

Student Teaching in Luxembourg

Those with student teaching placements in Europe will be placed in an International or European School with an English curriculum in Luxembourg for 8 weeks (mid-October to mid-December for Fall or mid-March to mid-May for Spring). Housing will be with experienced host families or possibly in apartments.

Advantages of this student teaching option include: close proximity to staff and students of the Miami University Luxembourg Center (MUDEC) for support and travel opportunities; the combination of student teaching in a U.S. and an international setting, allowing for professional and personal growth in differing contexts; multiple easy weekend travel options throughout western Europe; and financial support from an EHS scholarship fund specifically allocated for this program. EHS students can travel during a typical semester or as part of their student teaching experience. Gaining international teaching experience would be particularly advantageous for students hoping to teach abroad after graduation.

Currently, students may study abroad in either fall or spring.
