Peace Corps Opportunities

SDSU Students,
Are you interested in a Peace Corp Experience?  

Peace Corps is a US government agency that sends American citizens abroad to promote world peace and friendship. This is done by providing trained women and men to interested host countries to help support their development needs.

Peace Corps volunteers also share their American culture with other peoples while learning more about their host countries’ cultures and sharing it with Americans back in the U.S. Volunteers currently serve in over 60 different countries for 27 months in six different areas: 

Environment
Agriculture
Education
Youth in Development
Community Economic Development, and
Health

All expenses are typically covered related to one’s service. Visit the Peace Corps website for more information and view current positions accepting applications.  For specific information and upcoming presentations, contact Sally A Gillman in the Education Abroad office at SDSU.
