Summer is the perfect time for students to travel the world, gain real-world experience or continue their studies through summer courses. Last month, 20 undergraduate students enrolled in
and
John Stinchcombe’s Tropical Field Biology course got to do all this at once – and experience remote and biodiverse ecosystems that few people ever get to see.
The fourth-year course gives students the unique opportunity to conduct both group and independent field research in the Andean and Amazonian regions of Peru.
