Two-week study abroad to Costa Rica: culture, community, and service learning

Join us for an information session.

Monday, November 9th, at 3:00 p.m. in Bridges 362 or online https://minnstate.zoom.us/my/marydosch?omn=93135841215

Immerse yourself in Costa Rican culture, community, and human services through this hands-on, cross-disciplinary study abroad course, Psy 490.

First, build your Spanish skills at the International Language Campus on Tamarindo beach. Then, explore how Costa Rica’s history, culture, and economy shape education, mental health, medical care, and social welfare for children and families. Through an experiential service-learning project in local schools and community organizations, you’ll gain firsthand experience, expand your cultural awareness, and develop broader perspectives to inform your career.

If you are unable to attend the session, please contact Dr. Mary Dosch (doschma@mnstate.edu) or Dr. Lisa Stewart (stewart@mnstate.edu) for more information.
