Study Abroad Programmes
The Geology of New Zealand Programme (Geology) begins with a five-week field camp, which includes a series of interlinked modules that explore the stratigraphy, mountain building, and tectonics of the South Island, and the volcanology and geothermal geology of the North Island.
The New Zealand Earth Systems Programme analyzes current environmental issues arising from the interface between nature and society within the New Zealand Earth System through Māori and scientific world views. The four-week field camp takes advantage of sites on both the North Island and South Island of New Zealand.
Please note: Spring 2021 programmes have been cancelled due to New Zealand borders remaining closed to international students.
We are accepting applications for Fall 2021 programmes. We will provide border updates as they become available.
Frontiers Abroad is a “life changing experience” weaving (raranga) together personal exploration and wellbeing with academic pursuits across the physical and cultural landscapes of New Zealand (Aotearoa) and its communities. Our philosophy is that learning and growth occur when you are well, your mind is open, and you’re having fun!
Frontiers Abroad’s unique programme model seamlessly blends a multi-week field course component and a full semester on campus. There are two Earth and Environment programme options (Geology of New Zealand and New Zealand Earth Systems) with flexibility in tailoring your courses to fit your specific majors and interests.
Raranga- Maori weaving is an art form with practical outcomes of building food baskets and rope, but raranga is also used more symbolically for unity and togetherness of people, knowledge, and what binds our Earth.
Aotearoa- Land of the long white cloud
