This study abroad program aims to give students a better understanding of beer and chocolate production both in Germany and Belgium, the two world and European leaders in these areas of food and beverage production.

Munich is renowned as the heartland of Bavarian culture, stands as a beacon for beer enthusiasts worldwide. Brewing traditions date back centuries, with iconic “biergarten” and historic breweries like Hofbräuhaus. From crisp lagers to rich dunkels, Munich's beers are crafted with meticulous care and enjoyed amidst the city's vibrant social scene, making it a must-visit destination, for understanding both tradition and innovation in beer and brewing.

Brussels, Belgium's capital, is famous not only for its political importance (EU Commission, NATO headquarters) but also for its chocolate heritage. Renowned chocolatiers dot the city's streets, creating exquisite pralines, truffles, and bonbons that tempt the senses and delight chocolate connoisseurs from around the globe. Belgian chocolate, with its velvety texture and complex flavors, is more than a treat. It is a cultural symbol synonymous with craftsmanship and indulgence. Belgium is renowned for its diverse and flavorful beers, ranging from Trappist ales brewed by monks to fruity fermented with wild yeast. These beers often showcase complex flavors and aromas, making Belgium a mecca for beer enthusiasts worldwide. Finally, these two famous European cities are well known for their culture, history, and architecture.
