About

Learning isn't limited to classrooms at the University of Arkansas. Our students interview Tibetan refugees in India, study art and history at our U of A Rome Center, analyze business trends in Ireland and participate in community development in Belize and Mozambique.

International experiences expand students' understanding of their world. Options abound, with programs that last from two weeks up to a full year abroad and the U of A has one of the largest endowments of any public university in the nation providing scholarships for study abroad.

Our Office of Study Abroad and International Exchange helps students with step-by-step preparations ranging from program selection to funding options through pre-departure activities and returning back to campus.
