International Internships and Study Abroad

Students who have spent time overseas during their undergraduate careers--whether for academic year student abroad, research, summer study abroad, or an international internship--consistently count their international experiences among the most rewarding features of their college careers. They not only advance themselves academically, but gain an enhanced sense of engagement with and much more sophisticated view of our complex world. They learn a lot about themselves and often find that stepping away from their regular routine allows them to see things more clearly.

You may also find it useful to come to the Office of International Programs to read through students' evaluations of their internships and study abroad experiences or to contact a study abroad peer adviser or an international internship peer adviser.
