Travel Intensives


Travel Intensives are short-term, in-person international opportunities to work on global projects collaboratively with students from around the world. They're offered as part of a course credit but may also be co-curricular activities. Students learn about diverse approaches to creativity and innovation while increasing their intercultural understanding.
