Programs

Prague

Over the past several months, we've taken an intentional approach to evaluate and expand programming at our Prague location. As one of the more popular destinations for many majors, it has now become even more accessible to more students. And, we couldn't be more thrilled!

Study Center

It's official! CEA Prague is now home to our newest Study Center. Since 2007, we've offered study abroad programs through our local partner institution, Anglo American University (AAU). Through this exclusive partnership, students have enjoyed access to over 100 courses taught in English across a variety of subject areas. With the addition of the Prague Study Center, we're now able to complement students' coursework at AAU, particularly in areas such as math and engineering. We look forward to working with you to continue expanding our academic offerings in Prague.

Engineering & Math Summer Program

Our newest engineering program kicks-off at the Prague Center starting in summer 2021. With a focus on engineering & math, this 6-week program offers courses in Calculus III, Differential Equations, Engineering Statistics, and Linear Algebra. Students can take an additional elective course at AAU. Check out the program for more details.

Summer Quarter Internship

The Internship in Prague summer program now features an additional summer session, aligned to the quarter academic calendar. Students spend 8 weeks in Prague, from mid-June to mid-August, and complete the online hybrid internship course, and a minimum of 200 placement hours with a local company or organization. Student will have access a wide variety of career fields including many traditionally underserved such as engineering, and finance. Additional information about the program can be found here.

Tropical Marine Biology Field Study in San José, Costa Rica

This program is ideal for students wanting to explore topics in marine biology up-close and hands-on, in a location that prides itself as one of the most bio-diverse regions in the world, Costa Rica. Students take the Tropical Marine Biology course, which introduces them to the basic concepts of oceanography, marine geology, and marine biology. Students engage virtually with fellow peers and faculty the first 2 weeks of the program and then travel to Costa Rica to participate in activities and field sessions for 2 and a half weeks. During the on-site part of the program, students visit different marine habitats along the Costa Rican Pacific coast making this program a truly immersive experience. The program is offered in a winter (December/January) and summer (May/June) session. Learn more about the program here.

Locations

Cape Town, South Africa

We’re excited to expand our footprint by adding new programs in Cape Town, South Africa, in partnership with University of Cape Town (UCT). With access to the full curriculum at South Africa’s oldest, and the continent of Africa’s highest ranked, university, our students will be immersed in courses with local and international students. Students can choose electives, taught in English, from any of the following faculties at UCT: Commerce, Engineering & the Built Environment, Law, Humanities, and Science.

The city itself offers CEA students the chance to live and explore one of the world’s most beautiful cities, home to one of the seven natural wonders of the world – Table Mountain. As a hub of arts and culture, and a cost of living much lower than most cities in the US and Europe, the diverse activities and residents of Cape Town make it a perfect place for students to take their education abroad.
