With the current importance of globalization and an emphasis on broader cultural understanding, international travel and study abroad are important components to a well-rounded education.  In order to meet these goals, The Pennsylvania State University and its Commonwealth Campuses provide a number of study abroad opportunities.  Whether you are interested in studying abroad for an academic year, semester, summer, or a short term embedded experience, we have a program that will fit your needs!

The above links will take you to the different programs that are offered through the Office of International Programs and through courses offered at individual Commonwealth Campuses. All PSU students are eligible for any of these programs.

We have also provided information on internships abroad, including work abroad and volunteering. The fourth section has links to information regarding individual countries. Finally, the last section is for Faculty who are interested in proposing and creating an international experience. You will find links to forms and funding sources.
