Students in Bing Overseas Studies Program’s global seminar in Oaxaca learned first hand how the area’s Indigenous communities work in concert with local ecosystems. “In your head, you think of a national park that’s far away from everybody. But a lot of times, biodiversity is in people’s neighborhoods.”
Following two years of disruption and program suspensions due to COVID-19, Stanford’s iconic Bing Overseas Studies Program (BOSP) has resumed operations in its 12 global locations.
Stanford suspends BOSP summer quarter programs in 11 locations
Stanford has announced plans to suspend 11 Bing Overseas Studies Program Summer Quarter 2020-21 study away programs. The viability of summer study abroad programs in Oxford and Santiago remain under review through early May.
Given the ongoing uncertainty of the pandemic’s impact on international travel and our pressing concerns about Stanford University undergraduate students’ safety and health, all BOSP spring quarter programs have been suspended. This impacts study away programs in Berlin, Cape Town, Florence, Kyoto, Madrid, New York, Oxford, Paris, and Santiago.
