January Interterm Programs

Several programs offer courses during the interterm session, but these can only be taken for credit with consultation with an ES&P advisor.

• Living Routes through the University of Massachusetts, Amherst

Informational sessions about these programs are scheduled throughout the year. For the next opportunity to hear about a program check out our events page.

Students interested in these programs should speak with an ES&P adviser or the ES&P Program Coordinator Joanne Benkley.
