»International Studies

We encourage students to participate in study abroad programs. Studying overseas provides a unique opportunity, which can open up fresh perspectives on international political, economic and social issues, interpersonal relationships and ultimate career choices. Read more about Global Education. 

Students can study abroad in a variety of ways, taking one intensive course during interterm or summer, or spending a whole semester in another country, or even at sea. Recently, students have studied in countries such as the Czech Republic, Italy, Costa Rica, England, France, Argentina, Germany, and Spain. The studio department offers two studio courses; "The Origins of Art and Science: the Rise of Influence of Alchemy, Anatomy, Machines, and Astronomical Discoveries in Art of the Italian Renaissance" is a three-week studio course offered every other interterm, and "Contemporary Art in Berlin and Venice" is a three-week course offered every other summer where students visit galleries, artist studios and underground spaces in Berlin, Germany, and see the Venice Biennale in Italy.
