Semester Abroad

Enlarge your global capacity in Latin American culture

The office of International Academic Programs (PAI) offers the opportunity to experience an educational model that promotes:

  • Critical thinking
  • Teamwork
  • The practical application of knowledge

As an international student you will be part of a multicultural body of students dedicated to protecting the environment using new and sustainable methods. You will experience firsthand the rewards of an integrated world.

Our 15 week trimester of courses taught in Spanish will provide an excellent opportunity to augment your language skills. We can arrange intensive Spanish training to prepare you before classes start.

Trimesters begin the 2nd weeks of January, May, and September. You can choose courses of your interest from our catalogue or select one of the specializations that we have prepared.

We strive to make students successful in fulfilling their expectations. The professors at EARTH are available to answer any academic concerns or questions and the PAI staff will assist you in logistical matters before, during and after your stay at EARTH.
