The Office of International Affairs will host a study abroad fair today from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the second floor of the Student Center.

Information will be provided on the many study abroad programs and available scholarships. Attendants can also win prizes, including a $1,000 scholarship.

Jessica Cohen, market coordinator for OIA, said she thinks all study abroad trips are a great addition to a college education.

“These are really wonderful opportunities to get focused knowledge and international experience,” Cohen said.

Study abroad opportunities are available to everyone, she said.

“The university’s goal is to make sure every student gets the opportunity to have an international experience,” said Cohen.

Some of the locations for study abroad programs include Spain, Ghana, England, Mexico and Japan. Short-term, faculty-led programs are also available. They can range from one to six weeks in Uganda, Ireland, China, Italy and many other countries around the world.
