How to Study Abroad in Panama
After hundreds of years in turmoil—from the time of its earliest settlers (the Chibchan, Chocoan, and Cueva peoples) through its conquest in the hands of Spain, to the dawn of its independence—Panama is now diversity personified. Panama’s eclectic cultures are spread out from Caribbean archipelagos to misty rainforests to the lofty, futuristic skyscrapers of Panama City.
The country’s capital is the hub of education, and study abroad, in Panama. Panama City is a buzzing metropolis with a spectacular skyline and a knack for uniting old and new. An important trade center, Panama City is international and sophisticated, advancing quickly as the economy booms. It still retains its Central American appeal though; the lush greenery of the surrounding rainforests creep into the city’s parks, and the rush of the city dissipates completely when it meets the dazzling blue coastline.
Further afield, Bocas del Toro is a Caribbean dream. With its myriad reefs, mangroves and rivers, not to mention wide, white-sand beaches, Bocas del Toro provides the perfect setting for studying the different species of plants and animals found on the Panama isthmus. This is the place to be for students interested in tropical ecology, marine ecosystems, and biodiversity conservation, all in a laid-back Caribbean environment.
Adventure-hungry students can lose themselves in the more remote rural areas of Panama. The further you get from Panama’s main urban centers, the more surprises you will get. As well as the wonderful wildlife, traditional ways of life have been preserved in many of these remote regions, creating immersive learning opportunities for students interested in working in areas of agriculture, community, and global health after studying abroad in Panama.
