About the Program
This program allows you to study issues of environmental management and preservation, while exploring Ecuador’s rich ecology. You focus on Ecosystems, Conservation, and Public Policy while also improving your Spanish language skills. During the first four weeks of the program, you will be based in Quito, taking courses at the Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ), a private university located in the Quiteño suburb of Cumbayá . You'll then spend the remaining three weeks on San Cristóbal in the Galápagos Islands, studying at USFQ’s remote campus, the Galápagos Academic Institute for the Arts and Sciences (GAIAS).
