HECUA New Zealand - A Shared Future

Spending a semester traveling, interning and studying New Zealand with a cohort of students and a group of caring and humble faculty is one of those experiences that will stick with me always.

New Zealand is a beautiful country, with friendly people. The island biodiversity, progressive politics, copious sustainability initiatives, and indigneous-colonizer relationships make it an interesting and unique place to study biology, political science, environmental studies, and peace and justice studies.

HECUA staff did a great job of supporting me throughout the semester, as well as in the logistics of travel before and after. I always felt safe, learned a ton (academically and personally), and had a lot of fun.
