International Learning Experiences
Studying abroad offers wonderful opportunities to travel, to meet and interact with people from different cultures and to create a worldwide network of friends and future business contacts. Making study abroad a part of your education is the most effective and accessible means for students to develop intangible life skills such as independence, time management, organization, social skills and self-confidence, because it pushes them to go beyond their comfort zone to experience another culture, language, environment and education system. In an interconnected global world, diverse international experiences will help your résumé stand out to future employers or Graduate Schools.
