Study Abroad
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow mindedness …"
-- Mark Twain
At Culver-Stockton College we believe in bringing you to the world and bringing the world to you. Our Study Abroad program not only offers traditional individual student experiences in other countries, we also offer a way for students to travel with their friends and teachers for a short-term immersion in another culture. To expose more students to other cultures of the world, we require student participation in our innovative Academic and Cultural Events program. We fill our stages and venues with performing groups and lectures that help develop an appreciation for other ways of thinking and other ways of living.
Helpful information about traveling abroad can be found in the
C-SC Study Abroad Program Handbook (hyperlink to webpage) and at the U.S. State Department website. |
Unlike many Study Abroad programs that only offer opportunities for the student to study alone in a foreign country for a semester or a summer, Culver-Stockton College offers unique three-week study abroad courses through which students travel with Culver-Stockton faculty and other students to be immersed in specific cultural and educational opportunities. Three-week trips have included trips to China, Greece and Prague. Future trips will go to Istanbul, London and the Netherlands.
