Volunteering Abroad

Volunteering abroad is a work or service-based learning opportunity that may be attractive to students who wish to respond to the needs of an organization or community. Students can learn through contributing to community development activities. 

Volunteer programs are valuable for students who are interested in:

• Making meaningful contact with local people
• Using what they learn in the classroom to help their host community
• Meeting the genuine needs of the region visited
• Engaging fully in the host culture

Volunteer experiences are very diverse with regards to structure and are available on exchange programs, independent programs, and faculty-led programs.

Programs are offered during the fall, spring, and summer terms.
