Immerse yourself
As a Blugold, you are encouraged to immerse yourself into another culture to learn more about the world that’s not necessarily in your backyard. These faculty-led experiences can go all over the United States, coastal islands and beyond. Immersion programs last anywhere from a week to a full semester, but the impact they’ll leave will last a lifetime.
