This program seeks to integrate faith commitment with academic study. The director will lead discussions, both formal and informal, which encourage students to think and to live as Christians in God’s world. Students study development theory and Honduran history in class and put that theory to the test by observing life in their own Honduran family, by visiting U.S. banana plantations and seeing where the money from the plantation goes, and by carrying out an evaluation of a specific development program.

The Hungary program is structured for students to live and study together as a Christian academic community. While doing so, they develop and mature by experiencing a situation different from the familiar, by learning under a variety of teaching styles, by encountering a new set of behaviors and beliefs, and by drawing from course offerings and academic expertise unavailable elsewhere.
