Why study abroad?
ArtCenter’s carefully tailored Global Programs help students address complex design challenges and explore artistic practice around the world. These high impact opportunities enhance the total educational experience and help students gain a competitive edge. Participants earn degree credit, gain an international art and design perspective, and are prepared with critical skills for their future creative careers in a globalized society.
The Global Programs Office is here to guide students through the study abroad process, from choosing and applying to a program, to preparing to depart, to re-adjusting, reflecting and integrating academic and career learning outcomes upon return.
Whatever your situation may be, take the time to learn about the options and resources available to you. You can start by watching this short video.
