About Program
Study abroad in the beautiful and complex city of Cuernavaca! The "City of Eternal Spring" has been the home of Augsburg CGEE's longest-running study center for 40 years. All of our programs are experiential, rooted in social justice, and focus on direct community engagement. We weave real stories from people in Mexico to hear the lived realities and experiences of all types of peoples.
Students will stay with host families in the community and take classes in our study center and the Universal language school. Programs have multiple excursions built-in, including visits to rural areas (such as Amatlan, Ixtlilco El Grande), Mexico City, natural water parks, ancient pyramids, and more!
We also offer programs specialized for those majoring in:
*Social Work
*Communications, New Media, and Film
*Pre-Med/Health
*Spanish
*Women/Gender/Sexuality Studies
LGBTQ-friendly, vegetarian-friendly, and dry (no alcohol) home stays are all available upon request. Come engage in Mexico with us!
