Globalize Your Education
Communication majors are highly encouraged to study abroad. Participating in study abroad is an ideal way to add a global perspective to your COMM major through the first-hand experience living and studying in another country and culture. Studying abroad can also help you to understand the discipline of communication more deeply, and to cultivate critical reasoning and writing skills through a global lens.
Review the resources here to first explore how an international experience could fit into your degree plan. Then, connect with your Communication Undergraduate Advisor and your Education Abroad advisor to ensure you're choosing the best program to fit your goals. Your Education Abroad advisor can also help you explore ways to use financial aid, scholarships, and grants to finance your travel!
