Explore new cultures, develop leadership skills, and make a lasting impact.
Our international immersion experiences offer students the chance to engage with global communities, develop leadership skills, and gain hands-on experience in cross-cultural settings. With past programs in locations like Puerto Rico and Rwanda, students have collaborated on impactful service projects and high-impact learning opportunities. These experiences not only foster personal and professional growth by enhancing leadership, service, and community-building skills but also help students build global networks and gain a deeper understanding of cultures different and similar from their own.
