Additionally, students will learn about Singapore's innovative and alternative methods of agricultural production that have been developed to achieve food security in a country with a limited ability to produce it own food.&nbsp;</p> <p>Students will also explore the state's rapid economic development, its culture, history, and geography, as well as its financial institutions and businesses. This program is open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors in good academic standing. Participants should have a willingness to step outside their comfort zone, be a team player, and practice cultural sensitivity.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>3 credits ECON 4960 during spring semester</strong></p> <p><em>This program will be offered for the first time in spring 2025.</em></p> <hr /> <p><strong>Important Note Regarding Missing Classes</strong><br /> Please note that participation on some travel courses require you to be away from campus for some school days.&nbsp; The College of Agriculture &amp; Life Sciences tries to minimize the number of days missed for this purpose, but in some events, the inflexibility of the travel schedule prevents us from working completely within our breaks.&nbsp; Should you choose to enroll in a travel course that requires missing some class(es) on campus, you will need to contact your instructor directly to inquire whether or not arrangements can be made to make up this class work and/or exams. The CALS 草榴社区 office can provide you with a letter explaining the dates of the trip.&nbsp; However, it is your responsibility to contact the instructor to determine the potential impact on your grade before signing up for a 草榴社区 program. The instructor is responsible for determining the impact of any absence from class.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-departure-date field-type-datetime field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span class="date-display-range"><span class="date-display-start" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2025-03-12T00:00:00-05:00">Wednesday, March 12, 2025</span> to <span class="date-display-end" property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2025-03-23T00:00:00-05:00">Sunday, March 23, 2025</span></span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-department field-type-text field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Department:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Econ</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-type-of-travel field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Type of Travel:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Travel Course</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-application-deadline field-type-datetime field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Application Deadline:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2024-11-01T00:00:00-05:00" class="date-display-single">Friday, November 1, 2024</span></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-semester field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Semester:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Spring</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-application-link field-type-link-field field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="https://isuabroad.iastate.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgramAngular&amp;id=14062">Learn more!</a></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-year field-type-datetime field-label-inline clearfix"><div class="field-label">Year:&nbsp;</div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><span property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2025-01-01T00:00:00-06:00" class="date-display-single">2025</span></div></div></div> Wed, 21 Aug 2024 21:57:08 +0000 mmgrant 1378 at
