Benefits of Studying Away
Studying abroad will take students out of their comfort zone and provide access to incredible opportunities for cultural, intellectual and personal growth. Students who study abroad often report they feel better prepared to compete in today’s workforce, have gained valuable independence and self-confidence, and expanded their worldview.
While you are building your portfolio, enhancing your résumé, making new friends and seeing the world, you will be also be developing cultural humility. Cultural humility helps us challenge our unconscious assumptions and biases and is highly valued and applicable within our diverse global economy.
