Do you have the desire to help a deserving community while learning about South American customs? Our newest center, the Costa Rica Centre is the perfect balance of community service and academics that you can enjoy during your spring semester.
Located in Central America, Costa Rica is flanked by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. It is a country of diverse geography, with active volcanoes and protected rainforests.
An instructor from Ball State will teach a course and administer the program, but the bulk of the instructors will come from the Monteverde Rainforest Institute, which means you’ll get a real feel for the culture.
