Short term study, travel abroad programs

Northern Essex Community College is offering two short-term international courses: “Introduction to Archaeology: A Site Exploration of Ancient Turkey” and “Field Studies in Natural Systems: The Bio-geology of Belize.”

Classes will meet during four Saturday sessions on the college’s Haverhill Campus and also take an 11-day trip to Turkey or Belize.

Both courses are currently open and students are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Those who qualify can have the cost of the trip covered by financial aid.
