The largest floating university in the world has returned to Kenya, offering students the unique opportunity to spend an entire semester at sea.
The MV World Odyssey, a cruise ship converted into a university campus, provides students with a hands-on learning experience as they travel to different ports around the world.
The program, run by the non-profit organization Semester at Sea, enables students to take a variety of classes while also gaining exposure to different cultures and countries. The ship serves as their home, classroom, and means of transportation, allowing for a truly immersive educational experience.
Students on board have the chance to participate in field programs, engage in service-learning opportunities, and even conduct research projects. The curriculum is designed to offer a broad range of subjects, including liberal arts, social sciences, and business, making it a valuable experience for students from various academic backgrounds.
The ship’s current voyage will take students to ports in Europe, Africa, and the Americas, providing them with the chance to explore different regions and gain a global perspective. With its unique approach to education and travel, the MV World Odyssey is offering students an unforgettable and enriching experience that goes beyond the traditional classroom setting.
