Real-life learning—way beyond textbooks
The best way to learn is to roll up your sleeves and make your own discoveries—in and outside the classroom. We keep class sizes small (13 students on average) so you focus on building first-hand skills and knowledge through group projects that bring key concepts to life. You also tackle real challenges and find real solutions through field study and service learning.
