Study abroad
Helping students incorporate a study abroad experience into their four-year plan is a top priority for the College of Biological Sciences. The Learning Abroad Center provides a diverse array of options. Whether it’s your goal to study forest ecology in Costa Rica, marine biology in Australia or Denmark, health care in a developing country, or language and culture around the world, we hope you’ll join the list of CBS students who have studied abroad.
The next time you visit CBS Student Services, check out our study abroad map, see where our students have studied, and plan where you’ll make your mark on the world!

From the Dean
“Study abroad provides an important way for biology students to begin preparing for the challenges and opportunities of careers that are becoming increasingly global in nature. Students return from abroad with a new appreciation for cultural and international diversity and a better foundation for making their positive mark on the world.”
Robert Elde, Dean
