Student Experiences
Megan and Jordan went abroad to Costa Rica after becoming friends at UH while on O-team. They both completed a Medical Spanish and Health Sciences program in San Jose with CEA Study Abroad. They each took courses relevant to their majors (in English) as well as a Medical Spanish language course to develop effective communication skills with patients in their future health careers.
