Poland STEM Semester – Study Abroad for Fall

This year, we sent our second cohort of NC State students to Poznan, Poland for the Poland Global STEM Semester program. I’m happy to say that applications are now open for Fall 2020, and we are now offering 26 courses for NC State students to choose from to fulfill major, minor, and GEP requirements. This is a low-cost program with high value for students with built-in travel and a dedicated study abroad advisor on-site during orientation. Courses on the program will offer transfer credit, and our office will handle pre-approvals on behalf of the students.

Info Session

We will hold an Info Session for the program this Thursday, November 21st at 4:30pm in Talley 3221. A brief, recorded online info session can be found on our program brochure, for those who can’t make it.
