Education abroad and away is an invaluable opportunity that enhances and deepens the Davidson undergraduate experience.

Students have the opportunity to choose from several Davidson sponsored programs and from over 120 academic programs that are operated by partner providers around the world.

Each year, well over half of our graduating class studies abroad or away for a year, semester, or summer.

 

Why Consider Education Abroad or Away?

There are countless reasons to study abroad or away, but most importantly, it offers a chance to engage with other cultures, gain new perspectives, and cultivate humane instincts.

Students who study abroad or away develop skills that are frequently sought by selection committees, such as intercultural competence, awareness of international issues, communication skills, foreign language capabilities, creative problem solving, and more.
