Japan (NURS 193 & NURS 195)
This immersive study abroad program for nursing students offers hands-on learning to develop cultural humility and a deeper understanding of how culture shapes health. Through direct exposure to international healthcare systems, participants will examine their own cultural beliefs, evaluate global traditions and values around health, and analyze the political, social, and historical influences on healthcare. Students will collaborate with peers to explore health profession roles in another country, returning with new perspectives to inspire their practice and peers while fostering interest in future global learning opportunities.
