We are on the look-out for dynamic and motivated people who will benefit from a four-month immersion in the unique cultures and environments of Panama.
The MPFSS has been running for well over twenty years. It collaborates closely with the renowned Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, Panamanian universities, NGOs and Indigenous organizations to provide an unmatched applied learning experience for 不良研究所 students.
The program takes place from January to April every year. Students take 15 credits worth of courses in the form of field classes and modules taught by 不良研究所 faculty and a 6-credit research internship. This year we will be offering classes in tropical biology, sustainable agriculture, geography and urban studies. All our classes are delivered in the field. We emphasize an engagement with the real-world complexities surrounding key social and environmental issues facing Neotropics today - expect to be challenged!
Students from all Faculties are welcomed. The only prerequisite is a working fluency in Spanish and a statistics class (MATH 203 or equivalent).
