Re: [ECOLOG-L] Study abroad options for Ecology students
We offer Evolutionary Ecology and Geology of mainland Ecuador and the Galapagos as a Study Abroad class every other January. There are both undergraduate and graduate student versions.

OTS South Africa is a fantastic option! http://www.ots.ac.cr/index.php?option=com_contenttask=viewid=321Itemid=447
Re: [ECOLOG-L] Study abroad options for Ecology students
I was a biology and environmental science major at University Wisconsin - Green Bay and I spent a semester studying abroad at University of Auckland - New Zealand and it was phenomenal. I was able to take two biology courses and a GIS course. The country is also fantastic for ecologists and students who love the outdoors. Hope this helps.

Re: [ECOLOG-L] Study abroad options for Ecology students
I second Chris! I studied abroad in New Zealand last year and had an incredible experience. I cannot recommend Frontiers Abroad enough! Their programs are lead by professors from the University of Auckland and University of Canterbury and involve a semester at one of those universities, as well as a six-week field camp before the semester begins. During field camp, students design and implement independent projects which they then work on through the course of their time in New Zealand. I participated on the Frontiers Abroad Earth System Science program and my project involved using GPR to examine a potential fault next to a hospital in Whakatane. You can find more information about all of the Frontiers Abroad New Zealand Earth Science programs here: http://www.frontiersabroad.com/ Best, Sophie Sophie Hyson Barnard College Environmental Biology, Class of 2012 smh2...@barnard.edu (850) 980-8806 On Apr 11, 2012, at 6:50 PM, Christopher Hoffman wrote: I was a biology and environmental science major at University Wisconsin - Green Bay and I spent a semester studying abroad at University of Auckland - New Zealand and it was phenomenal.

Re: [ECOLOG-L] Study abroad options for Ecology students
Hello, I am a senior undergrad student Drexel University and studied abroad on Bioko Island of Equatorial Guinea this past Fall. Here is a link to their website (not too recently updated but I am sure you can contact them and they'd be happy to assist in any way): http://www.bioko.org/study_abroad/index.php It was a fantastic experience--my major is Biology with a concentration in Ecology--and I highly recommend it!
