The International Education and Exchange Programs (IEEP)
office provides opportunities for UM students to acquire an
international perspective in their academic career through
studying abroad on UM sponsored programs or at UM exchange
partner universities overseas. IEEP offers an extensive array
of overseas programs in over 45 countries. The UM-sponsored
programs are UM semesters delivered on location in Prague,
Rome, the Galilee, and the Galapagos and short-term programs
led by UM faculty in Latin America, Asia, Europe, South Africa,
and other locations. The faculty-led programs take place during
the January Intersession, Spring Break, and the Summer Sessions.
For the UM sponsored programs, students receive UM credits
and UM grades, and the courses are taught by UM professors
and/or professors from overseas universities who are experts
in their academic fields.
Students can also study abroad at one of UM’s 80 overseas
exchange partner universities for a semester, year, and/or
during the summer. They can study marine biology on the edge
of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef at James Cook University,
be at the center of Europe and study business at the Vienna
University of Economics and Business Administration, explore
Iceland’s unspoiled nature while studying earth sciences
at the University of Iceland, immerse themselves in Japanese
culture and business practices at Sophia University in Tokyo,
do an internship at Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico,
or become acquainted with the changing panorama of international
relations at Uppsala University in Sweden. Many of these programs
are delivered in English so foreign language proficiency is
not always required.
The Schools and Colleges at UM encourage study abroad options
for their students. With the assistance of the International
Education and Exchange Programs office and the guidance of
academic advisors, students can select a study abroad program
to fit almost any major. Additionally, UM financial aid will
apply to the costs of the UM programs. Students are advised
to plan early so studying abroad can be incorporated into
their academic plan.
