Bioengineering Study Abroad Opportunities
The College of Engineering and the International Programs Office are committed to making study abroad opportunities available to students. The highly structured, sequential nature of engineering curricula is often the biggest obstacle to students studying abroad for a semester. In response to this challenge, we have identified program options available to second-year, spring semester students. While these are not the only options available to students, these programs have been pre-approved by the college in an effort to facilitate the study abroad process.
