The classroom work is completed by an intensive program of guided visits to museums, historical sites, and other outstanding centers of European cultural heritage and by a one week cultural trip to the capitals and important cities of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire: Budapest, Vienna, Prague and Bratislava.
