OSU Faculty-Led Programs

If you are interested in an international experience led by OSU faculty and in the company of fellow OSU students, consider a faculty-led program. Faculty-led programs offer students the opportunity to pursue coursework in specific areas of study and for periods of time developed around OSU's academic calendar. Faculty-led programs are great matches for students looking for more support while abroad, and for those who have limited or no foreign language background.

OSU University Exchanges

If you are seeking a study abroad experience that is highly independent and culturally immersed, an exchange may be right for you. Exchange participants enroll directly at one of our partner universities and take classes with local students. Instruction is generally in the language of the host country. Some partner institutions are in English-speaking countries while others offer courses in English.

OSU Departmental Programs

Departmental programs focus on a specific academic discipline and restrict participation to students in the associated department or college.

IE3 Global Study Programs

OSU is home to IE3 Global study programs which offer students immersive and affordable study experiences. Enroll at a partner institution abroad and take classes side by side with local students or participate in an intensive program focused on language and culture.   With options in the summer and during the academic year, programs are open OSU students as well as students from partner campuses throughout Oregon.

International Internships with IE3 Global 

If you have relevant experience in your field and are seeking to contribute your skills and knowledge to an international host organization, consider an international internship through OSU's IE3 Global program. IE3 Global provides high-quality, internships to the students of OSU, as well as our partner campuses throughout the Northwest and beyond. Internships are best suited for students interested in an independent experience abroad that requires greater self-motivation and is fully immersed among host nationals.
