Though it is not required for the International Studies degree, many IS students study abroad. 
There are winter/summer programs, programs during fall/spring semesters, and even year-long programs. 
IS students have studied all over the world in countries such as Turkey, Chile, Morocco, Scotland, South Korea, Ghana and many more.  IS students who work closely with the IS academic advisor easily find study abroad coursework which fits nicely into the International Studies B.A.
