Semester Programs
Immersive Semester or Year Abroad
Your time abroad will be one of your most formative Cornell experiences. It's a unique opportunity to learn deeply about a place and people, immerse yourself in the local culture, and be challenged daily with new habits and worldviews.
With a range of program options, including Cornell Global Hubs, you can take innovative courses, gain hands-on experience, and lock in your language learning. Using academic skills and learning in a different context also pushes you to a deeper understanding of courses you've completed at Cornell. You'll grow academically and as a person during your semester or year abroad.
