Study Abroad: A World of Opportunity
Global Exploration
Stephens College expands the boundaries of the
campus with a wide variety of overseas study opportunities. Study abroad
programs combine academic study with cross-cultural interaction and
complement students' major courses of study and foreign language interests.
Once introduced to different ways of living, studying, working and communicating,
students open doors of opportunity to enter their profession anywhere
in the world.
Enhancing
Your Major
Stephens College offers study abroad opportunities
tailored to enhance every educational pursuit. Programs in London are
perfect for students interested in theatre, filmmaking or fashion. Business
majors can choose to expand their skills in locations such as Rome,
Mumbai, Seoul and Sweden. Dancers can dance in Paris. Writers can write
in Ireland. Scientists can explore the ecosystems of South and Central
America. No matter the interest, study abroad offers students a new
window through which to see their career unfold.
International Internships
In addition to studying, many of Stephens’
study abroad programs offer elite internships and educational volunteer
opportunities during the summer or school year. Such opportunities provide
valuable hands-on experience in career development abroad.
Speaking a Language
Speaking a foreign language is a valuable complement
to a study abroad experience. As international cooperation increases
in business, the arts, science and other fields, fluency in two or more
languages gives Stephens students a competitive edge. Whether a student’s
interest is in Spanish, Arabic, French or Italian, Stephens College
Study Abroad allows her the opportunity to immerse herself fully into
the culture where the language is spoken, enhancing both her language
skills and enabling her to communicate on a direct and personal level.
