Yes, you can study abroad as a STEM student! We believe that STEM students are integral to creating solutions to the global challenges we face, and study abroad is a key pathway to enriching your knowledge and skillset. We know that accessing study abroad opportunities as a STEM student can be challenging, but we’re here to remove those barriers and keep you on track for your degree requirements (aka graduating on time!) with our STEM Abroad initiative.
The goal of our STEM Abroad initiative—put simply—is to increase access to study abroad for STEM students like you. We offer STEM programming at our Centers around the world, and have a helpful program finder tool to assist you in finding the right study abroad program to fit your needs and what you’re studying in STEM.
In order to ensure the programs we were creating truly aligned with the specific needs of STEM students—particularly engineering students—we created an Engineering Consortium to champion the academic needs of Engineering students in particular since they have the most rigorous graduation requirements. Our Engineering Consortium is a network of U.S. and international STEM experts from highly regarded colleges and universities that helped design the exceptional engineering-focused study abroad programming we offer in Barcelona, Cape Town, Dublin, and Madrid.
These programs are designed so that Engineering students can check off course requirements in an international context and stay on track and graduate on time (yes, we’ve mentioned this a few times, but we know it’s THAT important!).
We’re showing STEM students around the world that study abroad IS possible for them, and we can’t wait to see where your academic adventures take you!
