"The World is Yours!"
The Office of Study Abroad and International Partnerships received funding through the Global Skills Opportunities program to support international learning experiences for 91探花 students from 2020 through until March 2025. Our programs consisted of short- and long-term credit bearing experiences including study abroad, co-operative education work terms, faculty-led courses, and summer programs.
We have been so grateful for the amazing opportunities afforded to students through the GSO grant, and are hopeful they choose to renew these grants to allow future students similar funding support.
We invite you to read about the amazing success and impact the GSO grant had on 91探花 students over the last five years.
