UCI Programs

• Most participants are other UCI students, and the number of participants is limited, creating a small, cohort feeling.
• Program details, such as  location, dates, courses, cost, eligibility, etc., may match your needs.
• Programs may align well with your academic, personal or professional interests.

Discover UCI Programs below.  Programs are added as they become finalized.

UCI Costa Rica Program	The UCI Costa Rica program is an alternative spring break program focused on global sustainability and cultural immersion in the Costa Rican rainforest. Learn about sustainability practices, engage in community service, and participate in a homestay. Contact: Rachel Harvey (rahavey@uci.edu)
UCI Global Service Scholars	Do you want to make a difference in the world? Do you feel an obligation to do good? What does the world really need from you? What do you want from yourself? The Global Service Scholars Program seeks to help students answer these questions for themselves. The program gives priority to students in the School of Social Ecology, but all UCI undergraduates are welcome to apply. For additional information contact: blumcenter@uci.edu.
Olive Tree Initiative	The mission of the Olive Tree Initiative is to promote conflict analysis and resolution through experiential education by providing students and community with the education, training and experiences needed to better negotiate and solve conflicts. We run yearly experiential learning trips to Turkey-Armenia (June) and the Middle East (Israel, West Bank, Jordan – September). Contact: olivetreeinitiative@uci.edu
