A part of the Honors Humanities Program, or H2P, H2Passport students are studying in Vienna and Prague during the
January intersession. For some of them, this is their first trip abroad
(for one student, it's the first time on a plane!). They’re learning a
lot about history and music (they've visited the Austrian National
Library, Schönbrunn Palace, etc.) and also how to navigate a big city
(with subways, planes and a foreign language to navigate).

This course takes students to Vienna and Prague to enhance their
experience of the early modern period acquired during their H2P3
course. Portions of H2P3 focus on the history and culture of Central
Europe to demonstrate the developments of Western intellectual thought
in the eighteenth through early twentieth centuries. This course expands
upon the students' knowledge by taking them to the sites and monuments
directly connected with the issues they studied in class and allowing
them to acquire deeper understanding and appreciation of the era and its
culture. --
