Last year alone, over 2,000 UT students traveled the globe to learn in a variety of programs and settings. Some were exchange students at the world’s most renowned universities. Some joined our own outstanding slate of UT faculty led programs. Others participated in programs affiliated with UT organized and run by leading study abroad specialists. Whether they fulfilled a language requirement in Argentina, conducted field research in Kenya, interned at a London bank, or critiqued literature at the Sorbonne, virtually all UT Austin students agree that their experience abroad was a highlight of their academic career.
At the Study Abroad Office, our goal is to make international learning experiences available to every UT-Austin student. We have programs suited to every stage of a student's academic career, from freshman to graduate study. We have information on internships, research opportunities, and language programs. And we also have information on a variety of scholarships that are specifically dedicated to overseas study.
