GLOBAL SCHOLAR PROGRAMS (Duration: One semester; for academic credit)
Language and cultural immersion spring from spending a semester abroad. Through coursework, service learning and field trips you'll fully engage the local community where you are living. You'll return home a broader, deeper person, challenged and changed. You'll also bring back connections -- professionally and personally -- as well as many life-long friendships.
These course-infused, global learning adventures are designed to give you that competetive edge in the marketplace. You'll gain global competencies in an interactive learning environment. Courses are college and major specific and translate directly to you chosed vocation. Walk in the footsteps of Paul while exporing the origins of Christianity or participate in a student consulting project for a business in the U.K. The possibilities are endless.
Go to another part of the world during spring, winter or summer breaks to serve, learn and make a difference. Ambassador trips are not for academic credit, but are led by faculty members and mentors, and can include projects such as building a bridge in Guatemala for your engineering class. Destinations include Honduras, Guatemala, Ghana, Germany, Moldova and Peru, just to name a few.
