What is the event? Study Abroad Day is a chance for SU students to browse the study abroad options available to them, to find the program that’s right for them, and to talk to staff members from programs around the country about available opportunities.
Where is it? The Study Abroad Day 2016 will be held in the Schine Student Center, in rooms 304ABC.
When will it be held? Thursday, Feb. 11, from 3- 6 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.
Students with every level of interest in studying abroad are encouraged to attend. You may find that new options have opened up since you last checked in with SU Abroad. A new social work program has been added in Strasbourg, as has a new engineering program for second-year students. A food studies program is about to launch at the SU Florence Center, as is an information technology cluster at the SU London Center. Since this time last year, new programs have been approved in Barcelona, New Zealand, and St. Petersburg, Russia.
