Brenau students don’t have to leave the country to experience different cultures. Through the Miller Institute’s immersion programming, both local and international students can enjoy other countries’ food, entertainment, traditions and more. These events and programs offer valuable opportunities for students to share their own experiences and culture, while also making lasting friendships.

Cultural Exchange on Campus
Bringing the world to BrenauPanamanian Spring Arts Showcase
As a part of the Fine Arts Exchange Program with Brenau and the Universidad de Panama, a group of Panamanian art students study for three weeks at Brenau during the spring. At the end of their time at Brenau, the students showcase their talents and work through a series of performances, which is open to the university’s students, faculty and staff.

International Speakers Initiative
Brenau’s International Speakers Initiative invites prominent international leaders to the university to not only share their compelling stories, but inspire and empower students. Two of our speakers have included:
- Epsy Campbell Barr, former vice president of Costa Rica
- Pamela Castillo Barahona, former vice minister of energy and environment for Costa Rica

International Food Showcase
Each month while classes are in session, the Miller Institute chooses a country’s food to showcase in Brenau’s dining hall, along with other related forms of entertainment. Some of the featured cuisine has represented countries such as Jamaica, China, Sweden and Nigeria.
