The International Program Center is excited to host of webinar series on exchange programs. Starting this week, we will host livewebinar with one of our partner institutions each week (*webinars will be recorded). These webinars are designed to introduce to students exchange opportunities available at these partner institutions, and topics include course options, student life, language requirements, financial support, etc.. All students are encouraged to attend. Faculty are welcomed to stream or replay these webinars in your classes.

What is an exchange program?

Exchange programs vary and can include domestic or international opportunities which allow students to study away. Some exchange programs are even offered virtually, allowing the student to have a global experience from their home.
