Vietnam Immersion
Immerse Yourself in Vietnam Through Language and Area Studies

Roommate on Boad

CET's Vietnam Immersion provides an intensive immersion environment for all students with an interest in Vietnamese language and culture. The program offers a unique combination of service-learning, area studies courses, concentrated Vietnamese language and immersion in contemporary Vietnamese society. In addition, CET's Vietnam Immersion students live with Vietnamese roommates. This allows our students to immerse themselves in Vietnamese culture and interact with their Vietnamese peers in ways that are otherwise impossible.

CET's Vietnam Immersion offers students the opportunity to participate in a service-learning placement. CET has cultivated partnerships with many local organizations and worked together to design a service-learning experience that allows for extensive interaction with the local community. CET's Resident Director arranges these volunteer opportunities, which may include working at an orphanage, volunteering at a local school, working with people who are disabled, or contributing to one of the many international NGO's operating in the city.

CET is now pleased to offer the new elective Environmental Sustainability in Vietnam. This course examines environmental development and sustainability in Vietnam from a number of perspectives. To learn more about both courses and others offered, please view the program academics page.
