UT Travel Courses Abroad

Students can earn UT academic credit while experiencing the world with their UT classmates and faculty. Students enroll in an on-campus course with a travel component that usually occurs immediately following the end of the term. The travel component may last from seven days to four weeks. Students pay regular tuition for a 3-4 credit hour course in addition to the program fee, which varies according to destination, length of stay and type of program. Students typically receive academic credit in the same semester as the pre-departure course. Destinations offered vary each year. Participants are required to register with the Office of International Programs by submitting an application, completing pre-departure instruction and enrolling in UT international health insurance. The application deadline is October 1 for Winter Intersession/January-term and spring break travel courses. The application deadline is Nov. 1 for spring semester and May Term travel courses. The application deadline is Feb. 15 for summer travel courses.
