This track allows students to choose a Neuroscience\u00a0 or Psychology Core Course and Neuroscience, Psych, or other general elective courses on a flexible basis. The courses include multiple study tours to different countries as well as the ability to turn Stockholm into your classroom in local labs, workshops, and other experiential learning opportunities. This program also offers a high level of support to students; read here<\/a> for more details about available resources.<\/p>\n Stockholm, the capital of Sweden (and one of the cleanest capitals in the world), is a beautiful city built on 14 islands on the banks of where Lake Malaren meets the Baltic sea. Stockholm houses two UNESCO heritage sites and its metro is the longest art gallery in the world. It is a unique blend of a well-preserved history and modern, youthful culture. Students are encouraged to go find out why Swedes have the longest life expectancy in Europe!<\/p>\n DIS Stockholm courses offer the choice of selecting one of the following Core Neuroscience Courses: Cognitive Neuroscience of Addiction<\/a>, Neuroscience of Emotion<\/a>, or The Loving Brain: The Neuroscience of Relationships<\/a>. For the Psychology track, students can choose one of\u00a0 the Neuroscience courses to be cross-listed as Psych, or from the following additional Core Psychology Courses:\u00a0 Forensic Psychology,<\/a> Developmental Psychopathology<\/a>, or Positive Psychology<\/a>. All of these options include a three-day short study tour in Sweden, a two-day seminar in Stockholm, and a week-long study tour to another country, which is all included in the cost.<\/p>\n Once a student has chosen their Core Course, they must select three to four elective courses from this\u00a0 list<\/a> of courses across many disciplines. Students are welcome to search for courses which have a lab, research, or workshop component. Note: We do require students to take an introduction to Swedish language and culture course.<\/p>\n DIS knows that students prefer to choose their type of housing, so there are four student housing options<\/a> available: homestay, living and learning communities, studentboende,<\/em> and residential communities. Housing is guaranteed to all participants and students will be given a meal stipend if they are not placed in a homestay. Students will commute to school on the local safe transportation system and are even given transport cards for the Stockholm metropolitan area – all included in the program cost.<\/p>\n How credits taken abroad will transfer back to SMCM.<\/p>\nStudy Abroad Budget<\/h4>\n
