SNFPHI collaborates with Columbia Global to offer the undergraduate program Columbia Summer Global Core: The Athens Experience. This program takes Athens as a vantage point to consider larger contemporary issues regarding urban planning and nation-making, public life and democracy, climate crisis and displacement, and immigration and the accommodation of cultural alterity. It is structured around the seminar Hellenism and the Topographical Imagination (which fulfils the Global Core requirement for Columbia College students), site visits, field trips, walking tours, and workshop sessions, all of which prepare students to curate an exhibition as their final project. SNFPHI offers grants of $1500 for students minoring in Classics and Hellenic Studies who participate in the program.
