Immerse yourself

An important part of your academic journey as a Blugold is better understanding people and their culture while in new surroundings. One of the several opportunities you will have to do this during your time here is through a cultural immersion program. These faculty-led experiences focus on interesting topics and can range from a week to semester-long time frames and include travel in or out of the country. No matter which one you decide to experience, one thing they all have in common is the life-changing perspective you will gain.
