Study Abroad
Studying, working or interning in another country is a highlight of the academic career of many students. For the coming year, the College of Education and Health Professions is planning six COEHP Study Abroad programs. Study Abroad programs include academic credit, but no less important are the personal and professional growth you will experience.

Experiences from past study abroad students
Sumner Sparks
undergraduate education major, Ireland program
“Going into the elementary schools was like stepping into the everyday life of an Irish person. When you travel as a tourist, you observe from the outside.”
Diarra Smith
graduate counseling student, New Zealand program
“When I went back and read my journal, I saw a progression of my emotions and experiences.”
Nicole Capdevila
undergraduate nursing student, Ghana program
“We learned a lot about being inventive. The nurses and doctors make so much of what they have, it was awesome to see. They were really willing to teach us how they do what they do and why.”
