Each adventure tour is arranged through the UWSP School of Health Promotion and Human Development. Program locations vary every year.
Tours are open to anyone who is in good health and who has a sense of adventure.
Although University credit is not part of the package, graduate or undergraduate credits in either history, philosophy, physical education or health promotion may be arranged prior to departure. Development of wellness themes is key to these experiences which encourage healthy living activities for all adults. As HPHD encourages its traditional students to take part in study abroad through the UWSP International Programs Department as part of their overall undergraduate experience, participant recruitment for the Adventure Tours program is aimed at adults as a means of encouraging them to lead healthy lifestyles. Increase global awareness and cultural sensitivity. Both leaders and participants gain a better understanding of selected countries histories, cultures, social structures, cuisine, languages and customs.
