What is the HECUA Program?

HECUA - Higher Education Consortium for Urban Affairs

HECUA is an organization of 20 liberal arts colleges, universities and associations dedicated to education for social justice. Together we shape academically rigorous, study-abroad and off-campus study programs that address the most pressing issues in our neighborhoods, nations and world. This unique educational collaboration engages students, faculty and practitioners in learning that generates knowledge and tools for social transformation and community building.

At HECUA we learn by seeing, reflecting and acting with others. HECUA specializes in integrating theory and practice, bringing together key disciplines that equip students to be active citizens and leaders – locally and globally.

Programs are located in Ecuador, Northern Ireland and Norway. Visit http://www.hecua.org/ for more information or stop by the Study Abroad Office, Saint Mary's Hall, Room 136.
