The 23-day tour to four major Brazilian cities, including Rio De Janeiro, will provide a unique experience of contemporary Brazil: spending an average of five days in each city touring the major attractions and interacting with representatives from key academic institutions. The cost includes return airfare to Brazil; domestic airfare from city to city; hotel accommodation; an expert UWI tour guide and an English-speaking guide; an orientation session inclusive of basic language introduction; entrance fees to sites and monuments; transportation within Brazil; all airport transfers and travel insurance. Organized by The UWI St. Augustine Office of Institutional Advancement & Internationalization, UWI Discovers is open to students, staff and alumni of Caribbean tertiary level institutions. The UWI Discovers series returns to India this year, from July 12 to August 4. (Click here for further details). |
Last June, a group from The UWI departed for a three-week academic immersion in India. It was the first of a series at the St. Augustine Campus titled ‘UWI Discovers,’ where students, staff and alumni will be led to Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS countries), over the next four years. This year, UWI Discovers kicks off with a tour of Brazil, from May 17 to June 9.
