Swimming With Sea Lions -- Study Abroad in the Galapagos and Ecuador

College of Charleston's GEOL 240: Volcanoes in the Footsteps of Darwin

PROGRAM INFORMATION:
This program will provide students with an in-depth, informative, and memorable field experience in the dramatic Andes volcanic region near Quito, Ecuador and in the volcanic islands of the Galapagos. The first portion of the course will take place in Charleston and will include geology readings and lectures about Andes subduction-related volcanism and the Galapagos hotspot, as well as lectures about the journey of Charles Darwin aboard the Beagle and the natural history of the Galapagos Islands. Students will fly as a group to Quito and travel in the Andes for 2 days, visiting the large volcano Cotopaxi in Cotopaxi National Park and other nearby geological sites. Then the class will fly from Quito to the Galapagos Islands to begin a 7-day cruise aboard a fully-staffed tour ship. The ship will visit 3 islands (San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Isabella) and students will have the opportunity to hike and study in several striking volcanic regions, including the water-filled El Junco crater of San Cristobal, the collapsed volcanic crater Media Luna on Santa Cruz, and the 6x5 mile wide Sierra Negra caldera on Isabella. In addition, there will be numerous opportunities to view and discuss the famous wildlife of the Galapagos, including sea lions, marine iguanas, giant tortoises, and Darwin finches. Students will visit a museum, give presentations based on their readings and observations, and participate in short lectures about volcanic geology of the islands, Darwin, and evolution. The students will then return to Charleston to complete a final project based on their experiences and research in Ecuador. The course will provide in-depth and hands-on experiences with two major volcanic regions (subduction and hotspot volcanoes) and provide important information about the links between geology and evolution.
