Some time is spent on the campus of East Tennessee State University with the actual trip to Scotland taking place from July 15 to August 4. This fee will include all expenses except university tuition and some meals. The primary purpose of the ASIS trip to Scotland is to conduct research at the School of Scottish Studies at the University of Edinburgh. Hence, most of our time will be spent in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. However, we will take several field-trips to historically significant sites throughout the Scottish countryside.
Students attend a lecture on site in Scotland.
