Study Abroad

Whether Penn students study abroad for a week or an academic year, they’ll come away with an entirely new frame of reference for understanding the world and their role in it.

Penn offers a wide range of programs to meet students’ personal and academic goals: • Semester study abroad provides the opportunity to establish one’s self in a new global community through extended study for a semester or year. Penn partners with top universities worldwide in one of the most extensive undergraduate student exchange networks of any Ivy League university. • Penn Global Seminars (PGS) combine an intensive semester-long campus seminar with a short-term international travel component led by the course’s instructor. These innovative and affordable programs offer all undergraduate students the opportunity to integrate immersive global travel into their Penn experience. Penn Summer Abroad is a good way to have a study abroad experience even if on-campus commitments prevent students from studying abroad during the academic year. Penn Summer Abroad offers faculty-led programs for Penn credit. Other short-term opportunities are offered through each of the four undergraduate schools. The Global Research and Internship Program (GRIP) provides students the opportunity to intern or conduct research abroad for eight to twelve weeks during the summer. These experiential opportunities are available in a diverse range of industries and allow students to apply their academic knowledge to a global workplace.
