SENEGAL:
Senegal Seminar (Beloit College)
The Beloit College program in Senegal operates on the campus of
Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, an institution of 8,000 students,
which is reputed to be the finest in francophone Africa. Students
take intensive courses in French language at the Institut de Francais
pour Etudiants Etrangers, studying primarily with students from
anglophone nations of West Africa, as well as with French-speaking
Senegalese students in university departments offering courses in
geography, history, sociology, political science, and philosophy.
At the Baobab Center, students study intensive Wolof, the most important
of the five major languages of Senegal, and may take courses in
Senegalese history and culture. Homestays are provided throughout
the semester. Eligibility: At least one 300-level French course.
Preference is given to those who have taken one or more courses
in African studies and can provide evidence of preparation through
an appropriate reading plan.
