Education Abroad Advising

In fields varying from business to foreign languages, approximately 120 UT students study abroad each year in semester or yearlong programs, often in less traditional locations such as India, China, Japan, South Africa, Dubai, Cyprus, Brazil, Costa Rica, Hungary and Russia. Nearly 300 students participate each year in UT travel courses, including Honors Abroad courses. The Honors Program also sends six students annually to study for a semester at Oxford University in England. The University enjoys partnerships with universities in Mexico, China and the United Kingdom, as well.

Information on education abroad opportunities can be obtained in the Office of International Programs. In addition to program information, services include academic assistance concerning proper registration and transfer credit procedures, as well as preregistration assistance for subsequent terms while abroad. Students also receive basic information on passports and visas, cultural issues, international health insurance coverage and practical travel tips. All students considering an international educational experience should consult with an education abroad adviser. More information and forms are available at www.ut.edu/international.
