Our Mission
The Northwestern University Study Abroad Office enriches the undergraduate curriculum by providing students with rigorous immersion opportunities abroad. These transformative experiences shape the way students think about themselves, their communities, and the world.
We work with faculty and administrators in all six Northwestern schools to:
- Provide optimal experiences abroad that combine learning inside and outside the classroom.
- Work with study abroad students before they leave, while they are abroad, and after they return to help integrate their experiences into their Northwestern undergraduate careers.
- Advise students about their study abroad options and assist them in finding the programs that best meet their needs.
- Continuously assess and improve study abroad at Northwestern.
