Study Abroad/Study Away

Why Study Abroad?

Study abroad can be a transformative experience in a student’s undergraduate education. Students return from abroad with fresh perspectives on their Bard education, and often with ideas that serve as the foundation for their senior projects. Bard’s high expectations of student achievement extend to study abroad. Bard has developed a number of programs specifically designed to integrate students into foreign cultures and academic environments.

Especially when combined with related academic study and foreign language fluency, study abroad enables students to gain essential perspectives on the history, culture, and concerns of people around the globe. This includes such vital issues as globalization, democratization, human rights, development, culture, identity and the environment.
