Join a small group of students who are passionate about history 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 your math and science textbooks. Walk the streets where Galileo, Newton, and Fibonacci once lived and where many lesser-known souls left their impact on the history of science and mathematics. Learn a history that is often shorted in mystery, often scandalous, and endlessly entertaining. Any student with an interest in the history of science and mathematics is encouraged to apply.
