Why study abroad?

Study abroad is one of the best ways students can develop global skills and grow academically, professionally, and personally. Experience learning beyond the classroom setting and immerse yourself in another culture.

Study Abroad Spotlights

August 31 is World Distance Learning Day. It was started to promote learning that happens outside of a traditional classroom. Whether LSU Tigers are learning in a lab or out in the field, an experience and an education are being gained.

Abby Ligon, natural resources ecology and management major with a concentration in wildlife ecology and a minor in forestry, spent this past spring semester studying forestry in Brnzo, Czech Republic, at Mendel University (MendelU).

LSU College of Agriculture had nine students spend their spring break in the Czech Republic as part of a 10-day study abroad program.
