Educational Excursions

Base camp at 14,500 feet in northern India.

Educational excursions are part of each program, whether a short-term stay in a rural village, a one-day excursion to a nearby non-profit organization, or a four-week continuous excursion. Excursions are built into the curriculum, and provide comparative perspectives on important program themes. They are not vacations or tourist visits, but an opportunity to practice fieldwork and to explore the program’s theme in a different context.

Excursion costs are included in program fees, and because they are an integral part of the curriculum, are mandatory for all students. For program-specific information, please see excursions information on each program page.
