Students will spend their first semester at AU and the next two semesters at UPEACE. During their summer at UPEACE, students complete an internship by spending several months in the field working intensively on some aspect of sustainable development. Students then return to AU for their final semester.
Language Requirement
As UPEACE is an English-language institution, there is no Spanish language pre-requisite. However, students are encouraged to study Spanish prior to beginning the program in order to gain communication skills for daily life in Costa Rica.
