Each year the International Education Center hosts a series of faculty led short-term programs during the summer and winter term, lasting from 10-14 days . Programs, led by Brookdale faculty, take students outside the traditional classroom and allow them a firsthand look at the history and culture which often times is only portrayed through lectures and textbooks. Students earn 3 hours of course credit for successful completion of the program and its related components.
These programs are open to both students and the community. Acceptance to the program determined by the order in which applications are received. Past programs include Ghana, Ireland, Greece, Ecuador, Paris, Rwanda, Japan, Italy. Scholarships are available for those students who qualify.

This experience will take anthropology and archeology students through pre-Colonial to "post-colonial" Peru, exploring ancient sites and connecting students with contemporary indigenous populations. Students will have the opportunity to experience first-hand the history that defines Peru today.
