Short Term Engineering Programs Abroad: STEP-Abroad

Faculty-led (Departmental) STEP-Abroad programs are fast-paced, unique international experiences typically lasting from one to six weeks. Credits earned vary by program, and most will involve a combination of industry visits, lectures, site visits, class work, and visits to tourist destinations. These programs may take place during Spring Break, May/Summer or Winter Break. Students will earn one to six credits depending on program length and academic content. Several programs are open to students of any ENGR major and accept applications from First-Year Engineering (FYE) students.
