Go beyond the classroom
Get ready for some adventure for January Term—our four-week immersive program during Spring Session A focusing on three core areas:
- Citizenship: Enhance the community and make an impact on issues like homelessness, environmental sustainability and urban renewal.
- Language and culture: Learn the way of life, cuisine and language of other countries through interactive exploration.
- Career preparation: Build your resume, learn new interviewing skills, land an internship and get prepared for your future career.
Immerse yourself
Begin your first year with the Citizenship Project, then take language and culture courses in year two and finish with career preparation in year three or four. You may have the opportunity to:
- Perform an off-Broadway production in New York City
- Attend the presidential inauguration in Washington, D.C.
- Intern with the ESPN X Games in Aspen, Colorado
- Start a business on a shoestring budget
- Study the connections between humans and the Atlantic Ocean
- Discover what's it's like to be a public school teacher
Citizenship Project
Your first introduction to Citizenship Project is during Lynn 101, a required class for first-year students. You and your classmates can choose your impact project for the spring semester.
During Spring Session A, seek solutions for a civic issue, problem or topic. Plus, help with our annual Comfort Cases project and package donated goods for children in foster care.
