Program Description: This program uses the theme of sustainable development to explore the relationship between people and their natural environment. We spend the first week on Magnetic Island, just offshore from the city of Townsville, taking classes with leading Australian experts. This is followed a 2.5-week field study of North Queensland. A typical itinerary includes snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, hiking and wildlife viewing in the Daintree rainforest, and experiencing Aboriginal culture and wildlife of the Outback.
