Customized Programs

The Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ) has over a decade of experience designing and executing customized programs (faculty-led programs) of any duration or academic focus. Our programs typically last from one to eight weeks and are tailored to meet the goals and expectations of our partners. The academic themes facilitated in the past include, but are not limited to:

  • Spanish Language Learning and Ecuadorian Culture,
  • Ecology and Conservation,
  • Marine Biology,
  • Evolutionary Psychology,
  • Gender and Postcolonial Studies,
  • Global Health Topics,
  • Food Security and Agriculture,
  • Entrepreneurship, Business, and Sustainable Tourism.

The academic content of a program can be entirely delivered by USFQ professors if desired, or partially, through co-teaching options, Spanish classes, and/or lectures on desired topics. USFQ can provide academic credit for the course by issuing transcripts if so desired.
