Study abroad and global learning experiences give students the opportunity to expand their perspectives, develop cultural awareness, and apply their classroom learning in real-world settings around the world. For students in the College of Health and Human Services, these experiences often include engaging with different healthcare systems, learning how communities address health challenges, and gaining a deeper understanding of how culture, policy, and resources shape care.
CHHS Study Abroad Scholarships help remove financial barriers so more students can take part in these life-changing opportunities. By supporting travel costs, program fees, and related expenses, these scholarships make it possible for students to pursue global learning experiences that strengthen their education and prepare them to serve diverse communities throughout their careers.
