Study Abroad

Why Study Abroad?

You can learn a lot about the world through books and classes—but nothing compares to seeing it for yourself. Studying abroad will change the way you view the world forever!

Most of Suffolk’s study abroad program are open to both Suffolk University students and students enrolled at other institutions.  As you read through the many options on this site, picture yourself learning, traveling and making lifelong friends in other countries.

Suffolk offers a diverse range of program options to choose from:

Travel to Suffolk’s overseas campus in Madrid, Spain.

Enroll in one of our semester programs—available at dozens of international locations around the world.

Participate in one of our unique, credit-bearing, faculty-led courses—conveniently scheduled during the break periods between regular semesters.

International students who wish to study in Boston for one or two semesters can take advantage of all Suffolk University has to offer.

Study abroad allows you to become more independent and informed about the world at the same time that you are earning academic credits and enriching your college experience.  If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us.
