Study Abroad 2015: An African Immersion: Examining Peace, Governance, History and Culture in Ethiopia
Assefaw Bariagaber, Ph.D., director of the Post-Conflict State Reconstruction and Sustainability certificate program and professor at Seton Hall's School of Diplomacy and International Relations, led a group of 15 students on an African Union study tour in Ethiopia from March 5 to March 15, during the University's spring break. The tour included both cultural highlights of Ethiopia's rich history and academic seminars on the African Union, which is headquartered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital.
"The opportunity to participate in this sort of study abroad program was one of the things that drew me to Seton Hall,"says diplomacy master's student John Pollock. "As someone who studied archeology and paleoanthropology as an undergraduate, I'm particularly thrilled to visit the National Archeological Museum to see Lucy [one of the earliest human ancestors ever discovered]."
