IDEAS faculty-led programs are short-term, credit-bearing academic offerings designed and taught by home-institution faculty in collaboration with IDEAS academic staff. Programs combine classroom instruction with field-based learning, language engagement, and cultural immersion in Senegal. Built around specific disciplinary themes, they integrate local expertise, site-based coursework, and community engagement, with IDEAS providing academic coordination, housing arrangements, and on-site support.
