May 22 - June 7, 2013

Vienna is called "The City of Music" for its importance to many of the world's finest musicians, and it's also been termed the "City of Dreams" for its role as Freud's home! Its unofficial titled, according to the BU students who've studied there, is the City of Grand Cafes. Vienna is also a surprising city. A few years ago, the Economist rated Vienna, tied with Vancouver, as the world's most livable cities! And one last factoid: Vienna was ranked first globally for a culture of innovation in 2007 and 2008, and second globally, after Boston, in 2009 by the Innovation Cities Index. How can one city offer so much history, and so much innovation? Find our for yourself.

You will not only experience Vienna, but spend a few days in the magical village of Igls, above Innsbruck, and you'll visit the beautiful city of Salzburg as well.
