The University of Kitakyushu (Kitakyushu, Japan - on the southern island of Kyushu), a long-time ODU partner, has offered Old Dominion University the opportunity to send one professor to teach American Society/American Culture to their students this summer.  Classes will be conducted from August 23 to September 8 (about two weeks).  

The ODU faculty member will teach a series of 15 classes (3 classes per day for 5 days, or 5 classes per day for 3 days).  Typically faculty have chosen to teach three 90 minute courses each day for 5 days.  The rate of compensation for each class is about 11,700 yen per class (approximately $140 USD).  Housing will be provided by the University of Kitakyushu.  Airfare will be provided by the Office of International Programs.
