Study Abroad

The Study Abroad Office assists the Bryant community, and especially the student body, with information pertaining to credit-bearing education abroad programs. Opportunities for students will range from faculty-led short courses, to summer and winter term options, to a regular semester or year abroad. The Study Abroad Office helps students to navigate their options and takes them from the initial interest stage, through application, time abroad and return to Bryant. At a minimum, students must be in contact with the Study Abroad Office at least one regular semester prior to the term they wish to study abroad.

The Study Abroad Office houses the application process for the Sophomore International Experience (SIE) and works to ensure that students meet the eligibility requirements for this program. In addition, the office can also provide faculty with the non-academic considerations for developing a short-course abroad, separate from the SIE program. The Study Abroad Office also assists faculty with determining an on-site logistical coordinator for any faculty-led program, if the faculty member does not have the necessary connections abroad.

You should contact the Study Abroad Office if you have a student who has expressed an interest in a program abroad or if you are seeking to better understand the non-academic components of a short-course abroad. The Study Abroad Office is also available to discuss any questions you may have about the study abroad process. Study Abroad is committed to ensuring that all members of the Bryant community are aware of the credit-bearing education abroad opportunities available, as Bryant believes an experience abroad is a vital component of a students’ college education.
