Trip Overview

Through LU Send, this class will travel to Ecuador to participate in hands- on learning experiences studying biodiversity, conservation, and research in tropical ecosystems. Students will also work alongside faculty and biologists from other cultures to learn about the natural history of Ecuador and the Galapagos. Students will benefit by learning about biology in a different cultural setting and will see meaningful ways in which to apply Godly dominion. Get out of the classroom and into the jungle!
