If your student is interested in a study away experience, Missouri Western has plenty of opportunities for them.
Faculty-led courses take students to many locations both nationally and internationally. The 2017 spring semester will send students to New York City on March 10-18, Ireland on May 8-15, and China in May. During summer 2017 courses, students will go to India, Greece, and Portland, Oregon. A journalism trip to Europe is also being scheduled, with more information coming soon.
Students can also choose to spend a semester abroad. Deciding to spend a semester abroad will give your student more options than other study away opportunities. Be sure to check out study away financial aid early, though, as semesters abroad are more expensive than the faculty-led courses.
To get started, your student should speak with their academic advisor to ensure that studying away will not impede their degree progress, then fill out the inquiry form or contact the Study Away Office at tglise@missouriwestern.edu or (816) 271-4194 with questions.
