This program is being planned to next run-in summer 2024.

The primary objective of this study abroad program is to expose students to a country with unique and diverse environmental advantages as well as problems. A second objective is for students to examine how another society deals with environmental issues similar to those found in the United States.

This program will allow students to see such dichotomies firsthand. The numerous environmental issues found throughout the island provide a wonderful outdoor classroom for students to study and observe issues such as land degradation (deforestation, soil erosion and desertification) and the threats of poor resource protection, as well as the possibilities of environmental restoration and the benefits of resource conservation.

In addition to learning about environmental issues, students will learn about industries such as fishing, whaling and Icelandic tourism. Park management will be studied on field trips to national parks with unusual features such as geysers, glaciers and hot springs. Activities such as hiking and swimming will provide time for relaxation between the planned educational activities.
