What is different about the GESI program?
The GESI model integrates innovative program components that are not offered in traditional study abroad experiences. GESI places students in a team setting with a host nonprofit organization where they learn about international community development by developing and implementing a real project in areas from youth education to microfinance and beyond. In this model, students are given tremendous responsibility and the rewards of this are equally great. Students move from academics and awareness to action.
