Study Abroad Program Development
University of Arizona academic units may develop customized study abroad programs that are managed centrally by the Study Abroad office or housed within academic units and managed departmentally.
- Faculty-Led programs are a great way to integrate international education into the UArizona experience. Contact Associate Director, Diane Nelson at [email protected] for support in crafting a meaningful experience abroad.
- Develop a Global Track for your major or minor at one of our Arizona Abroad Locations. Arizona Abroad Locations are high-capacity, multi-disciplinary study abroad programs that are designed to be financially and academically accessible to all students. Contact Curriculum Integration Manager, Mariah Nunes, [email protected], to express interest in learning more about Global Tracks for your department.
- Departmentally managed programs are those that are run by the department and not managed centrally though the university’s Study Abroad office. Although Study Abroad does not manage these programs, that office is responsible for tracking participation and providing GeoBlue travel insurance. UA International Travel provides health, safety and security support. Please contact our Associate Director, Lindsay Downs at [email protected], to discuss next steps.
