Welcome!

EARTH's educational model is based on four pillars: human values, entrepreneurial spirit, social and environmental awareness, and technical and scientific knowledge. The University's participatory learning methodology provides a sound education while cultivating creative, innovative, critical and disciplined professionals able to work as part of a team and pursue a strategic, development-oriented vision.

Human Values: EARTH's educational model encourages the development of ethical and human values, which translate into personal and professional integrity. Graduates have the ability to work as part of a team to resolve problems, by fostering dialogue, peace and understanding among individuals, governments and nations.

Entrepreneurial Spirit: As a means of developing entrepreneurial spirit and management skills, EARTH students have the opportunity to form their own businesses, testing the economic, social and environmental viability of their enterprises. This prepares them to one day either join an existing company or develop their own projects, and to apply innovative ideas with a vision of making businesses more solid.

Social and Environmental Awareness: Every part of EARTH's academic program includes a community outreach component. The Community Development Program coordinates weekly visits through which students are able to share their newly acquired knowledge and learn from the experiences of local farmers. The farmers become teachers, and work with the students to seek innovative solutions to the challenges that their communities are facing.

EARTH students also learn sustainable environmental management techniques and assume a commitment to promote the rational use of natural resources.

Technical and Scientific Knowledge: The educational process at EARTH allows students to develop technical and scientific knowledge that, once understood in the classroom, is applied in the field and laboratory to validate and strengthen the learning process.
