Program Details
This intensive course combines a comprehensive introduction to Bahasa Indonesia with an in-country immersion program. Students begin with an intensive introduction to the Indonesian language in Arizona and acquire basic communication skills in classes that run 4 hours a day, with tutoring and cultural activities in the afternoon. Indonesian students will live together in a dorm near campus. Students then travel to Denpasar, Bali, for an assisted full immersion experience, living in host families and learning to navigate daily life through one-on-one 'real-life' exercises with local language coaches.
