Open Application: CKS Khmer Language & Culture Study Program

The CKS Khmer Language and Culture Study Program (KLCP) provides an opportunity for faculty, post-graduate researchers and undergraduates from U.S. universities to participate in an intensive eight-week study abroad program in Phnom Penh, and Siem Reap Cambodia.

There is a demand among academic researchers for appropriate high quality in-country immersive Khmer language training. However, not all have completed the two years of academic training in Khmer required for Advance Study in Khmer (ASK). 

The CKS Khmer Language and Culture Study Program aims to meet that demand and provide the opportunity for those with less Khmer language experience to benefit from study in-country. Like their ASK counterparts, participants in the CKS program will receive four hours of intensive language training during morning sessions. In the afternoon, they will take part, alongside the ASK program participants, in fieldtrips and other cultural activities, including visits to local governmental and non-governmental institutions, where their language skills can be used in real-time situations.

Beginners are welcome to apply.

Deadline: February 28, 2020

Program Date: June 22 - August 14, 2020
