Welcome to Augsburg CGEE in Mexico! CGEE has been offering educational programming in various locations in Mexico since 1979. Since 1982 CGEE has operated a study center in Cuernavaca, about two hours south of Mexico City, with a permanent staff team. CGEE’s longevity has allowed us to develop deep and trusting relationships with people and organizations across a broad cross section of Mexican society. On your custom program with CGEE you will experience Mexico’s cultural richness while getting a glimpse of the daily lives and struggles of its diverse population.
This hybrid course that includes a 12 day trip to Mexico will provide you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in the cultures of central Mexico and to engage in a real-world learning experience by co-teaching, observing, and collaborating with local Mexican teachers and students in Cuernavaca. By participating in this program that focuses on the themes of culture, language, identity, and social justice, you will identify similarities and differences in the educational system from the United States and Mexico
