Study Abroad in Namibia
Namibia is a country in southern Africa along the Atlantic Ocean. Approximately 200 American university students study abroad in Namibia each making it a unique study abroad destination. The capital city is Windhoek. Namibia is home to one of the oldest coastal deserts in the world with extremely high sand dunes, which were created by the strong onshore winds. In these famous coastal deserts, you can find the most abundant source of diamonds on earth, perhaps another reason students consider study abroad in Namibia.
