2015 Peru Summer Study Abroad:
Andean Societies and Environments
July 6 to July 25, 2015
GHY 1011: Global Climate Change (4 hrs)
GHY 3140: Andean Mountain Geography (3 hrs)
This 17-day intensive program introduces students to Global Climate Change
and Andean Mountain Geography through direct field experience and research
activities, readings, discussions, and meetings with guest speakers. Field
excursions to Machu Picchu and other locations in the Sacred Valley and an 8day trek in the Cordillera Vilcanota (with strenuous ascents to over 17,000 ft)
will provide an outstanding setting for the study of Andean human-environment
interactions and the impacts of climate variability and change on tropical
glaciers, ecosystems, and human populations.
Program Leaders: Dr. Baker Perry, Patience Perry, and Dr. Anton Seimon
