I gained a new perspective of the world we live in by experiencing life in a new country. It was definitely worthwhile! Lindsey L - University of Northern Iowa
Very worthwhile. I learned so much about ancient cultures and even new ones and how they evolved over time. I also learned about the environment and how societies can factor into the destruction of natural resources. Another thing I had the opportunity to do was go on an archeological dig, which summed up all of my knowledge I l... A student - University of Northern Iowa

I would do it all over again i would! i loved every minute of it Elle J - University of Northern Iowa

About
This course offers the opportunity for students to obtain a fundamental understanding of the relationship between humans, their environment, and the role interdisciplinary scientific research plays in not only the understanding of our past, but using this knowledge to plan for a sustainable future.
Join us in Southern Italy to investigate the environmental and social-political implications of climate change in a hands-on, experiential way. The last week of class, we will take part in an archaelogical dig to see what we can discover!
