Cornell in Vietnam

Cornell in Vietnam builds upon a previous environmental-themed Cornell in Vietnam offering, "Climate Change Awareness and Service Learning in the Mekong Delta." This course was uniquely structured with three module components: 

• A seven week instruction period in the fall semester.
• A three week immersion over winter break.
• Another seven week period of instruction in the spring semester.

This course focused on the human and environmental issues concerning climate change in Vietnam, and was led by Professors Thuy Tranviet (Vietnamese) and Mike Hoffmann (Entomology).
