Study Abroad

Studying abroad is the act of a student pursuing educational opportunities in another country.

Typically, classes taken while studying abroad award credits transferable to higher education institutions in the home country. Length of study can range from one week, usually during a domestic break, to an academic year, encompassing a couple academic terms.

Some students choose to study abroad in order to learn a language from native speakers. Others may take classes in their academic major in a place that allows them to expand their hands-on experience (e.g. someone who’s studying marine biology studying abroad in Jamaica or a student of sustainable development living and studying in a remote village in Senegal). Still other students may study abroad in order to explore topics within the framework of a different educational system (e.g. a student of English who goes to the United States to study American literature).

This is new age. Everyone talk about globalization. And for globalization everyone have to know about all things about all over the world.  We are in 21 century. So modern science and technology made this world really narrow.
