About Study Abroad
In keeping with CLU's mission to "educate leaders for a global society," the Study Abroad Center helps students incorporate an international dimension into their college experience. Spending a summer, semester, or year abroad and/or participating in travel courses, students broaden their horizons and gain global perspective.
A study abroad experience provides students with opportunities to:
- Gain an international perspective and learn to navigate a different environment
- Meet new people and establish friendships that span across the globe
- Increase proficiency in a foreign language and develop intercultural awareness
- Experience challenges that foster independence, confidence, and personal growth
- Be exposed to new ideas and different ways of life
- Experience a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
- Enhance a resume and stand out from the crowd when applying for a job
