BFSS: Barbados Field Study Semester
“The BFSS is an international, hands-on, in-the-field experience directed at students having an interest in global issues related to natural resource use as affected by socio-economic, management, urban and physical constraints. This program challenges students to be more effective environmental decision makers, policy makers and urban planners. The overall goal of the program is to equip future leaders with background, concepts and skills necessary for addressing global and environmental issues in the development and implementation of strategies for sustainable use of resources; water resources is an emphasis.”
