Study Abroad
Michigan State University is the national leader in study abroad, offering more than 200 programs, on all continents and in over 60 countries. Programs are offered every session, including winter break, and range from two weeks to an academic year. In many instances, costs do not exceed a semester's study on campus on a per credit basis.
Over 20 percent of current MSU students participate in study abroad and the program continues to grow. An increasingly common component of excellence in higher education today, study abroad is quickly becoming an expected and integral part of the undergraduate experience at Michigan State University.
Programs are offered in many academic disciplines, including programs in the Colleges of Arts and Letters, Agriculture and Natural Resources, Business, Communication Arts and Sciences, Education, Engineering, James Madison, Natural Science, Nursing, Social Science, and Veterinary Medicine. Students understand that studying abroad helps them develop the academic/intellectual, personal, professional, and intercultural skills and attitudes required to become effective and competitive in the global environments they will encounter after graduation.
Students are encouraged to explore study abroad opportunities early. They may start by visiting the Study Abroad Web site at www.studyabroad.msu.edu, by calling 517-353-8920, or by visiting the Office of Study Abroad in 109 International Center.
