Study Abroad
It’s not where you go, but what you take from it. Blugolds who study abroad always share the same feeling – it’s life-changing.

Cultural Immersion
Cultural Immersions are meaningful intercultural experiences beyond the classroom. Connect with a specific culture as a group of students and faculty.

The opportunity to study abroad in Spain helped me grow as a member of society and pushed me outside of my comfort zone in so many ways. Who would have thought I'd ever try surfing!

And with opportunities to study abroad and participate in the National Student Exchange program, you can take your learning to a global level.
