Nicaraguan Studies Program *
Nicaragua

The Nicaraguan Studies Program (NSP) is a fall semester academic and cultural opportunity of Dordt College in cooperation with The Nehemiah Center. The overall goal of NSP is to immerse students in Nicaraguan life so that they see similarities and differences among cultures and develop in the light of God's Word a Christian understanding of cultural diversity and the shaping power of differing worldviews. Students will live with host families in Leon and have opportunities to interact with other Nicaraguans as they study the Spanish language, Nicaraguan/Central American worldviews, culture, business, history, contemporary society and other subjects. Living, studying and serving in a Christian community, NSP students will have opportunities to explore what faith means to them and how it affects their relationships with those at home and with persons from other cultures.
