Journalism students and faculty will be traveling with the psychology program to the Arenal region of Costa Rica to assist in its work and create digital content.
We will assist with the psychology program’s work and the needs of the in-country partners for digital content.
Journalism students and faculty will work on the psychology program’s service projects with Proyecto Asís and CEPIA, create content around Mercer's inaugural work in this region, and create digital content and educational materials for the in-country partner.
Students can look at work journalism students created on a past Mercer On Mission experience here.
Our aim is to give journalism students some real-world, international experience in creating news and features content while also supporting and raising awareness of Mercer's work across the globe.
The registrar will enroll you in courses for your program.
