Service-Learning: Thailand Excursions
Study Abroad integrated with Volunteer Service
Travel and Excursions that Broaden Your Perspective
Guided excursions, accompanied by Payap University staff members, occur throughout
the semester and include visits to famous monasteries in the Chiang Mai area, hill tribe
villages, and other sites of interest in the mountainous region of the north. Class-related
work includes some day trips to nearby sites and overnight excursions to Bangkok (Spring
semester) or Sukhothai, the former capital (Fall semester), and to a lowland and upland
village in Northern Thailand.
The first summer session academic excursion you will visit Dhammananda Bikkuni , the first
female monk in Thailand, at her monastery. The second session excursion you will travel to
Mae Sot on the Thai-Burma border to visit the work of human rights NGOs as well as a
refugee camp.
