Study Abroad
No two study abroad trips are alike – unless you count the life-changing part.
Among the lessons students learn:
- How people across the globe are fundamentally similar and different.
- How their leadership impacts other people.
- How the confidence they gain will help them long past their time at Doane.
A portion of Doane students—in addition to honors students and language majors who have a study abroad requirement—choose to spend an entire semester or a year at one of Doane’s many affiliated international institutions.
They absorb new cultures, build relationships and travel locally in order to fully explore a region of the world. They explore new cultures and study ancient civilizations.
Our students tell us that studying art history in Italy was like stepping inside a textbook; that working with industry leaders in Norway was a business lesson unto itself.
