Study Abroad/Study Away

For Bard Students > Independent Study

An independent study project abroad may be undertaken as part of the normal course load in a study abroad program or during the January intersession or the summer. Independent study projects must be approved by a faculty sponsor, the head of the relevant division or program, and the College's Executive Committee. Students interested in developing an independent study project should consult with their academic advisers. The possibilities for research projects abroad extend to every academic discipline and are innumerable.
