Study abroad in the Land of Fire and Ice

December 29, 2024by: Erin Benitez - United StatesProgram: API: Experience Reykjavik, Iceland (Scholarships Available)

Before coming to Iceland, I was super hesitant about going. I applied for fun to keep my options open but was never too serious about it. I did not know anyone else going and I was not sure about the classes I would be taking. If you are thinking of studying abroad, 100% do it. Over the past 6 weeks, I have learned a lot. Being put in a new place with unfamiliar surroundings and people you do not know forces you to constantly learn and ask questions. I had to navigate my way around a new place and become familiar with a new culture and way of life. I feel as though the lessons I learned over my time abroad will help me immensely with my future travels and in many other aspects of life. API could not have made it a better experience. Through culturally immersive excursions and 24/7 support, API provides students with an ability to have an incredible time while studying abroad.

    API offers students a unique and exciting opportunity to study abroad in Iceland and experience the Icelandic culture and way of life in Reykjavík! API students will take classes at Reykjavík University, along with Icelandic and other international students, and choose from several English-taught courses in subjects, including business, computer science (including game design), engineering, and sustainability. Forged by the fires of still active volcanoes, Iceland utilizes its abundant, renewable resources and derives nearly all of its power from geothermal energy. As such, it is a world leader in sustainable energy planning. The country is much more than its natural beauty. Despite its small population and size, Iceland is one of the most technologically developed and socially progres...
