Linking Lives Program in Lugano

Lugano Skyline

Roanoke College now offers a Fall and Spring semester study abroad program in Lugano, Switzerland and Rwanda.     

●      In the Fall semester, the program focuses on creating sustainable social change. You are based in Lugano, Switzerland for 2 months, and then travel to Rwanda for 1 month.  You  experience life in a local village and work with our local NGO partners. 

●      The Spring program focuses on marketing and business development applied to social welfare projects. You spend 3 months in Switzerland, with three 10-day breaks to travel across and experience Europe.  You also have the option for a 2-week experience in Rwanda. In each program, you travel throughout Europe every weekend. 

●      The cost of this program, other than personal expenses, is the same as if you lived on campus with a meal plan! 

You can learn more about these two programs at www.linkinglives.org or contact Dr. David Brinberg (brinberg@roanoke.edu).
