About.

EARTH University offers ample opportunities for transformative learning. Through our short term study abroad programs and hands-on internships on our academic farms, partipants will broaden their knowledge about sustainable agriculture, natural resource management and sustainable development, meet people from all over the world (both on campus and in the communities) and increase their environmental and social consciousness.

The Office of International Academic Relations at EARTH is the unit that coordinates these opportunities for students, faculty, visitors and academic institutions.
