Costa Rica

The CIE is excited to announce this brand new short-term program in partnership with the Institute for Central American Development Studies (ICADS). This program is focused on first-hand learning, with the major areas of study related to global sustainability, local environmental and agriculture issues, indigenous culture and the struggle for representation, and rural development. Nazareth has had a long-standing partnership with ICADS (we offer semester long and internship opportunities with ICADS), so we are very excited to offer this spring break program so that students have an opportunity to experience some this vibrantly beautiful country in just over a week.

SPARK GRANT:

Qualifying freshman, sophomore, and transfer students can use their SPARK Grant for this short-term study abroad program.
