Semester Exchange Dialogue

Each year, VCU welcomes VCUarts Qatar to the Monroe Park campus in Richmond for Qatar Week, an exchange between the VCUarts Richmond and VCUarts Qatar campuses that showcases the success of the overseas branch and its researchers, alumni, students and faculty, and promotes new areas of collaboration between the two campuses. VCUarts Qatar held its first Qatar Day event in Richmond in 2002, which evolved into a week-long program.

Qatar Week 2023 is hosted by VCUarts Dean Carmenita Higginbotham and VCUarts Qatar Dean Amir Berbić and will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the overseas branch campus of VCUarts with a series of events and opportunities to network and interact.

Do you often wonder what it’s like for VCUarts students to study and live in Qatar?
And what do students from the Qatar campus feel about learning and living in Richmond?
Then you don’t want to miss this! This is an excellent opportunity to hear the first-hand accounts of our students from both campuses who made the most of our Semester Exchange Program.

Location: Pollak Building, Room 520 at VCU.
Date: October 10, 2023, 12 p.m. (EDT)

Please note: this event will take place at VCU in Richmond.
