Where the world is our classroom!
In today’s era of globalization/internationalization, we all effectively live in a
small global village. There’s an ever-increasing need to develop intercultural competencies
that prepare our students, faculty, and staff to live, learn, and work in the global
community. Study Abroad is one of the most beneficial and life-changing experiences
for college students, faculty, and staff. The experience can help participants broaden
their vision of the world, experience different styles of teaching/learning, learn
about new cultures and perspectives, and increase cross-cultural awareness. Kentucky
State University’s (KSU) engagement with the international community is critical to
the future of our students, our University, and our Commonwealth.
At Kentucky State University, Study Abroad means international teaching, learning,
research, and service opportunities that may be offered and completed in fall, winter,
spring, or summer semesters, either credit-based or non-credit-based. Types of Study
Abroad programs include:
University-led or faculty-led programs,
Third-party programs, and
Individual direct enrollment programs.
Students may earn credits/grades towards their degree for required or elective courses
offered by KSU. Transcripts of foreign courses may be evaluated by an authorized education
service agency or through a course or programs articulation agreement between KSU
and international partner institutions. The Office of International Affairs provides
guidance and consultation for developing international programs and university-wide
Study Abroad advising. The Office develops Study Abroad opportunities to provide a
wide variety of support services to study/teach abroad, conduct field research, and
participate in service-learning programs or internships.
