With more than 200 programs to choose from in over 50 countries, all Purdue students have the opportunity to participate in study, volunteering, or internships abroad. Academic credit earned by participants transfers back to Purdue with grades, allowing students to fit study abroad into their four-year plan.

Programs vary by discipline, foreign language ability, and length (from one week to one year). More than half of the programs have no foreign language requirement. Students can often go abroad as early as the summer after their freshman year.

Purdue scholarships and financial aid may be applied to program fees. In addition, a number of scholarships related specifically to study abroad are available.

Study abroad opportunities also are offered by International Programs in Agriculture, International Programs in Consumer and Family Sciences, and International Programs in Veterinary Medicine.
