CEP
Field Sites: Connecting Our Work to the World
To
advance our missions in undergraduate education, environmental research and
community outreach, the CEP has established a network of field sites with locations
in North Carolina and foreign countries such as Thailand and Austria. The field
site program is coordinated through the Study Abroad Office of the College of
Arts and Sciences. Each site focuses on themes specific to that community or
region and provides a semester-long opportunity for students to explore real-world
issues through a combination of course work, field trips, group research projects
and internships with local organizations. Challenges facing host communities
help shape the curriculum at each site, and the results of research by UNC-Chapel
Hill faculty and students are shared with community partners.
The UNC Study Abroad Office
in the College of Arts and Sciences coordinates applications for attendance
at all CEP field sites. The Study Abroad Office has set an annual February 15
deadline for applications. To apply to a specific field site, click on Apply
