Study Abroad Liaison

To assist students with their academic choices abroad and to answer questions about taking major/minor credits abroad, each department and program assigns faculty members to serve as study abroad liaisons. The Study Abroad Liaison will provide guidance on major/minor credits, as different departments have different policies on taking credits from abroad.

Get credit for climate justice, science, and policy

Students wishing to take credit for climate justice, science, and policy for coursework conducted off-campus during the academic year should discuss these plans with their study abroad liaison. As part of the application process for a summer term or semester abroad, all students must have their course proposals reviewed by the department if they wish to earn credits in their major/minor. For the semester, this is the first conversation, students have more course information (syllabus, etc.) and should continue to discuss plans with the department. Summer courses require pre-approval. After returning home, students for the semester are required to complete a petition requesting a replacement of the requirements form for final and formal review.
