Study Abroad
Become a citizen of the world through one of more than 50 approved study abroad experiences
βI spent a full semester studying in Ecuador and a summer studying public health in Costa Rica. It was the best thing I've done in college. What I most value about the ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ study abroad programs is the emphasis on connecting with people and community.β

Study Abroad & ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄'s Core Values
Intercultural Understanding
βWhile in Costa Rica I grew very, very fond of politics, specifically Costa Rican political parties. I ended up getting hired as a consultant for a local political party in Curridabat. We were able to come up with a plan to not only win office, but also create long-lasting relationships between the upcoming administration and the citizens.β
