Guatemala
JANUARY - FEBRUARY 2024
An Adventure
For The Mind
Make an intellectual journey to Central America where you’ll have the freedom to engage in entrepreneurial courses in English and Spanish at the ‘Silicon Valley of Universities’, Michael Polanyi College.
A UNIQUE DESTINATION
With its Maya culture and heritage mixing with Spanish traditions, Guatemala City is a bustling city with markets, music, and museums all at your doorstep. You’ll be an enrolled student at Francisco Marroquín University, praised by Milton Friedman as “one of the leading universities in Latin America”. You can expect to meet many bright and engaging students who will be more than happy to show you their vibrant city. Beyond the city streets lie magnificent volcanoes, Mayan ruins, and expansive lakes surrounded by mountains.
Social Enterprise
Guatemala has its fair share of social and economic issues, and we are inviting our students to use their ingenuity to find ways to tackle some of these problems. This won’t just be a theoretical exercise - we will give you the tools to make a real difference in the local community.
