Ceiba now offers both semester-length and summer programs!

"Tropical Conservation Semester" - Semester Abroad Program

Spend the Spring semester exploring the dramatic beauty of Ecuador.  Extended visits to the Amazon rainforest and the Galapagos Islands, and a month-long internship with a local community or conservation organization make this program completely unique!  Come work with Ceiba on ongoing conservation and research projects, while learning marine and terrestrial biology, studying Spanish, and living with host families in Quito and in the Galapagos.

"Tropical Ecosystems: Andes to Amazon" - Summer Course

Each summer we take students for a month-long tour of the major habitat systems of Ecuador, including cloud forest, coastal dry forest, and the breathtaking Amazon rainforest!  Lectures more often are given under trees and vines than in a classroom, and students have the chance to learn many standard ecological techniques during hands-on training sessions in each field site, and during independent projects carried out in the rainforest.
