Education Abroad offers a variety of study abroad opportunities for students and faculty in over 25 countries, these include: semester exchanges, dual degree programs, summer and short term programs, international internships, and service learning. Programs range from one week to one year and award academic credit.
Why Exchange?
There is no greater way to experience a culture for a semester or year than to live in it! Instead of being just a visitor in a country, USF Education Abroad offers students the opportunity to truly experience living in a foreign country, while earning credit toward a degree. The cross-cultural insights into the student’s field and deep academic focus combined with a real exposure to a country and its people is one of the most fulfilling experiences USF offers!
