Study Abroad with Clark University
Studying abroad takes you beyond Clark University's Worcester campus providing students with life-changing opportunities and unique skills development. Over 50 Clark-affiliated semester and year-long study abroad programs offer students unique opportunities to actively engage in a variety of learning styles and opportunites around the globe. Students begin the journey by attending a Study Abroad 101 Information Session and attending the fall Study Abroad Fair. Explore the website to learn more about study abroad requirements, programs, and scholarship opportunities. Program-specific information is available via the drop-down below. Once a student has attended the study abroad info session and narrowed down their program selection, they should discuss plans in greater detail with their faculty advisor and a study abroad advisor. Please call 508-793-7363 or email studyabroad@clarku.edu to schedule an appointment.
The health and safety of our students is important to us. We consistently strive to provide up-to-date and relevant information to ensure students, families, and advisors are aware of various situations occurring around the world. The US State Department website provides country-specific safety information as well as information specifically directed to students studying abroad. Travelers are encouraged to review and register for the State Department STEP program when going abroad.
