A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive program(s) offered by the institution, including how each program addresses the social, economic, and environmental dimensions of sustainability:
Indiana University offers many partnership programs with countries overseas that incorporate semester abroad experiences, or a split class where half the term is held at IU and the other half in a chosen country.
Examples of partnership programs that are sustainability focused include: an Environmental Studies Summer Program in China that examines the environmental issues China and Southeast Asia currently face (https://iabroad.iu.edu/istart/controllers/ovst/InquiryEngine.cfm?serviceid=ProgramSearchProvider), a sustainable agriculture and service learning course in Jamaica (http://overseas.iu.edu/docs/Non-OVST-Programs/RootsFruitsFlyer.pdf), an Environmental Studies and Sustainability program in Freiburg, Germany (http://www.iesabroad.org/study-abroad/programs/freiburg-environmental-studies-sustainability), and a program in Quito, Ecuador exploring the ecological diversity in the Amazon Rainforest and the Galapagos Islands (http://www.iesabroad.org/study-abroad/quito).
