Why should I study abroad?

In our increasingly interdependent world, studying abroad can add to your college experience and boost your resume while opening your eyes to a new culture, giving you a fresh perspective on your way of life. Carefully selecting the right study abroad program can give you some unique insight into your field of interest while helping you become more appealing to future employers, regardless of your major.
