Study Abroad in Ecuador
For nearly a decade, St. Ambrose University's
Women's Studies and Study Abroad programs,
Salisbury State University and Frostburg State
University in Maryland, and Centro de Estudios Interamericanos have offered successful
international opportunities designed to provide serious college students, teachers, and other
interested adults with an opportunity to study the language and culture of
Latin
America.
The
program includes formal classroom instruction, the opportunity to live with and learn from an Ecuadorian family, and numerous field trips to sites of cultural, geographical, and historical
interest.
During the winter intersession and spring session, faculty, staff and
students travel to
Cuenca,
Ecuador for academic and cultural enrichment. The program includes
visits to special sites including the Inca fortress of Ingapirca, El Cajas
National Park, the resort town of Baños de Ambato, the Old City of Quito,
La Mitad del Mundo, the weaving and crafts centers of Otavalo, San Antonio
de Ibarra, and Calderón.
