Political Science & Politics Study Abroad Programs in Havana, Cuba

Thank you to University Studies Abroad Consortium (USAC) for this opportunity to have neurosurgeon Dr. Abel and neuroanesthesiologist Dr. Armando as my professors for such a unique experience. With students from all over the US, I was able to visit: - a polyclinic - a geriatric care home - a maternity care home - a family doctor clinic - a pharmacy - one of the original science academies of Cuba (now a museum) - so many other places! Having been able to interact with a variety clients, patients, and health care professionals has made this one of the most fruitful classes l've ever taken.

Studying abroad in Cuba was the most unique experience I've ever had and I learned more in those three weeks than I feel like I've learned in all of college. You grow so much as a person but also academically and professionally and the chance to explore a country that few get to travel to was absolutely mind-blowing. I'm so grateful that I got over my fears and the financial worries and decided to go to Cuba! Best decision of my life, no competition.
