This program will also offer students the opportunity to enroll in an online statistics class (STA 2023). Some of the activities include a dive to the Red Sea to discuss coral biology and threats to that ecosystem and a visit to the Negev desert to explore major flora and fauna.\r\n\r\n<strong>NOTE:<\/strong> It is highly recommended that students are scuba certified and that they have had their last dive within the past 6 months. Diving certification is not a requirement as students can snorkel, but scuba diving will provide for better experiential learning and enjoyment.\r\n\r\n<strong>Think you can't afford to study abroad?<\/strong> Scholarships and other ways to fund your study abroad program are available. <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/international\/study-abroad-costs-scholarships\/\">Explore scholarship options<\/a> now.\r\n\r\n<strong>Available courses<\/strong> - Students <strong>must enroll <\/strong>in the course listed below.
