Join a small group of students who are passionate about history and science for three action-packed weeks in Italy and England. Leave the classroom behind as we seek the bizarre and wonderful stories behind the formulas in our textbooks. Walk the streets where Galileo, Newton, and Fibonacci once lived and where many lesser-known scholars left their impact on the history of science and mathematics. Learn a history that is often shrouded in mystery, often scandalous, and endlessly entertaining. Any student with an interest in the history of science and mathematics is encouraged to apply.
