The University of Denver offers myriad opportunities to live and learn in cultures and countries throughout the world. We believe that the growing importance of cross-cultural understanding, along with new global events and interdependencies, challenge us to diversify and internationalize our curriculum. The Josef Korbel School faculty direct several of DU's 150 study-abroad programs that help students develop a sense of perspective on their roles in our ever-emerging global society.

Costa Rica Study-Abroad Program
Arthur Gilbert, professor at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies, leads a group of DU graduate and undergraduate students to Costa Rica every winter. This five-credit-hour program highlights the political, educational and cultural aspects of Costa Rica and other Central American countries. San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, serves as the program's home base. Students attend class lectures four days a week, allowing them ample time to discover the country on the weekend.
The intensity of the coursework may qualify for credit towards students' majors or minors, but students must obtain pre-approval. Pre-approval credit forms are available at the Study Abroad Office and must be signed by an academic advisor and returned to the Study Abroad Office prior to leaving on the program. The Study Abroad Office will register all accepted students. Once registered, tuition billing will be sent out to the student's billing address.
