Study Abroad

All graduate students in the School of Public Service are encouraged to study abroad.  In fact, we offer more opportunities for international study than any other equivalent program in a private university because we are so sure that international study benefits our students, professionally and personally.  To apply for a study abroad program visit your program of interests' page, where you will find the application and application deadline. The application is also located in the Forms Library.

Students who study abroad:

• Gain cross-cultural experiences
• Learn about international nonprofit organizations
• Develop lifelong relationships with people from other countries
• Make international professional contacts
• Broaden their understanding of how nonprofit organizations function
• Experience new cultures, languages, and traditions

“The international opportunities offered by the program are truly remarkable, for they provide both current students and alum an opportunity to examine the nonprofit sector with a global perspective.”
—Dr. Michael Gibbs, chief advancement officer, Astronomical Society of the Pacific
