‘Canes Go Global with Study Abroad
Pack your bags, because Georgia Southwestern State University wants you to be all aboard on our next study abroad! GSW Study Abroad offers students the opportunity to submerge yourself in another country’s culture, cuisine, and language while simultaneously developing global awareness, cross-cultural communication, and problem-solving skills. Participants of study abroad not only gain marketable skills, but gain the memories and travel savviness that only immersive international experiences abroad can provide.
Benefits of Education Abroad
The benefits of study abroad range from class credits to life experience. Whether you pursue graduate school or a career after GSW, admission boards and employers alike are attracted to candidates who have studied abroad. The experience defines you as curious and committed to a well-rounded education. The most exciting part of studying abroad is the total submergence into another culture! This type of travel allows you to witness the terrains, natural wonders, museums and landmarks of your host country, not to mention the potential to learn a new language, eat some local food, and create meaningful connections with people across the globe.
