Office of Learning Abroad

SUU's Office of Learning Abroad works to foster empathy, cultural and global understanding, experiential learning, and personal enrichment in all of the university's students, faculty, and staff by providing them with these opportunities to take part in international programs. These programs are divided into four categories: semester exchange abroad, short-term study abroad, volunteer and internship abroad, and National Student Exchange. A map of all of our currently available study abroad programs is located at the bottom of this page.
