Creation Care Studies Program (CCSP)
The Creation Care Study Program (CCSP) is a four-month study abroad program offered in two international locations: Belize, Central America, and the South Pacific (Samoa and New Zealand.) The goal of CCSP is to develop and nurture the knowledge, care, and practical competence necessary to be caretakers of creation. At the core of each program are three, four-credit classes in theology (God and Nature), biology (Tropical Ecosystems or Ecosystems of the South Pacific), and sustainable development (Introduction to Sustainable Community Development). Internships are also offered in the student’s major as well as elective classes in anthropology, Latin American Studies, or Environmental Literature.
