Study Abroad Opportunities

For Media and Communication Majors

Media and Communication majors are encouraged to spend a semester or a year studying abroad. Exciting opportunities are available and are relatively easy to arrange through Arcadia’s College of Global Studies. Media and Communication is a global field. Studying in a different environment and learning about the communication processes in a wider context are essential to a student inthis field. . Undoubtedly, this opportunity enhances the career training and understanding of our majors.

Media and Communication majors who plan to study abroad must do so during the sophomore or junior years only. With prior approval, students may take courses to fulfill any University-wide requirement. Students must plan study abroad programs at least a year in advance to ensure finding appropriate courses that will transfer to their requirements. See more about internships abroad on the next page.

Since it is important that students plan ahead for study abroad, they should consult with their advisers as soon as possible and make their intentions known to the Department Chair and the Associate Dean of International Affairs.

For Global Media Majors

These Majors Abroad Programs (MAPs) require one year of study. Students need to work with their advisers and Chair of the Department to prepare a plan of studying abroad in one of the specialized areas to complete these degrees.
