Comprehensive Science majors should begin the study abroad advising process as early as possible. Tell your academic advisor that you are interested in study abroad at each registration appointment. Together, identify the best terms to go abroad, for summer or semester, based on the courses in your four-year-plan.
Specific things to consider:
- Generally speaking, courses that have a two-semester sequencing can be difficult to complete abroad (Gen Bio, Gen Chem, Physics). It is often suggested taking these courses in the summer or before/after study abroad.
- Pre-Health: If you are considering a Pre-Health focus, please speak with your advisor and the HPA office to make sure you can fulfill your professional school requirements.
Search the OEA Course Approval History database to select from more than 3,000 study abroad courses that have already been pre-approved for liberal education requirements and a growing list of technical courses.
The Course Approval History database is not all-inclusive and students can work with an OEA advisor to submit additional courses for review.
Don't forget - CLAS has a list of policies and limitations specifically focused on study abroad. Make sure you're aware of these as you plan your overseas experience.
