Home to stunning colonial architecture and some of the most beautiful beaches and best surfing in the world, Salvador is also the center of Afro-Brazilian culture and has some of the leading educational institutions in the country.  In our semester program, you will take courses taught by local Brazilian faculty at The Federal University of Bahia (Universidade Federal da Bahia), which houses some of the best academic programs in Brazil and is particularly noted for its public health programs.  In addition to academic coursework in classes ranging from the Economic, Political, and Social History of Brazil to Introduction to Social Medicine, students will participate in service learning projects in Salvador based on community needs and participant skills and interests.  Students live with local homestay families and participate in cultural excursions and workshops throughout the semester.
