Geological Excursions in Argentina
In this Winter Break course, sixteen geology students honed field method skills in the Andes mountains. They studied dinosaurs, sedimentary rocks, igneous rocks, mountain-building, and more!
Short-Term Study Away
While the majority of Macalester students who study away do so on a semester-long program, we recognize that semester-long study away might not be the right choice for everyone. Therefore, we offer a limited number of Mac-Led Programs (short-term study away opportunities that are embedded in an on-campus course and taught by Macalester faculty and staff). We also provide resources for students to consider an external short-term study away opportunity during January or the summer, of which there are many options.
