Yes
A brief description of the sustainability-focused immersive program(s) offered by the institution:
Several OSU study abroad programs focus on sustainability as a core program element, and several more examine an issue using sustainability as a lens.
One example of such programs is the IE3 Global Internship: Zero Waste Field Studies. This program lasts one term, and it applies a holistic approach to the sustainable development of communities and environmental stewardship via research, educational outreach, ecotourism, and community initiatives. Students explore creative and applied solutions to the effects of climate change, particularly as it relates to community development and education, ecotourism, and farming.
