Vienna Program - May 2026

A hand holds a fork poised to cut into a slice of chocolate-covered cake with a whipped cream garnish on a white plate; a cup of coffee sits in the background.

History

The Vienna Program is NMU's running and most popular faculty-led study abroad opportunity. We are well into our third decade of going to Central Europe for a month-long cultural immersion with a unique twist. There is a reason the Program is so popular; come to any of the following information meetings to find out (all meetings at 5:00pm in 249 Gries Hall - the History Lounge). 

Or contact: program leader Prof. Robbie Goodrich (rgoodric@nmu.edu) or the International Programs Office (goabroad@nmu.edu). Or check out our website: nmu.edu/vienna
