BSC students and professors experience the people and culture of Belize.
Another study tour sent students to India, where they interacted with the locals and learned much about the geography, politics, culture and religion of the country.

Study the World! Students Travel to Four Corners of the Globe with Faculty Mentors
Three groups of BSC students spent their winter break partaking in a study tour of one of three destinations. Many called it the experience of a lifetime, as students did everything from pick coffee in Nicaragua, to work with orphans and the homeless in India, to live in a Mayan village in Belize. Recently we sat down with some of the students and professors who took part in each trip. Check out this edition of bPod-Lite (mp3) to hear more about their experiences.
