Learning Abroad

Immersion in another country and culture offers students a powerful personal and intellectual experience that advances their understanding of global issues, challenges students to study, work, or research in a cultural context different from their own, and pushes students to develop their sense of self in the world.  The College strongly encourages all students to include at least one learning experience abroad in their educational pathway at Mount Holyoke.
