BENEFITS of Off-campus study
Semester-long programs allow for deep engagement in academic study, internship and research opportunities, and understanding of our interconnected world.
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), employers are seeking talent who can demonstrate soft skills, like problem solving, leadership, initiative, adaptability, and ability to work in teams and across difference. The global marketplace also demands knowledge of foreign markets, and foreign language ability is considered an added bonus.
Second-semester sophomores, juniors and first-semester seniors are eligible to study off-campus for a semester.
