Experiences in foreign institutions give students a competitive edge in an increasingly global marketplace.


CNU's Office for Career and Academic Planning has helpful information and documentation for students beginning their search for study abroad solutions. Many study abroad programs are available to today's university students, and the links below can help get the search started.


The next step is to consult with an MCLL Study Abroad Contact Person for the language area of interest. These faculty members can help students find the program abroad that best fits their needs, whether they plan to study abroad for a summer, a semester or a year. Students who intend to study abroad should make an appointment to meet with the appropriate contact person early in the planning stages. A list of whom to contact is provided below.


The Department of Modern & Classical Languages & Literatures is proud to announce an exciting new study abroad opportunity in Seville, Spain, open to students interested in Spanish from beginner to advanced levels. Students will embark on this program for the first time in the Fall semester of the 2010-11 academic year. More information is available below.

The MCLL department also offers annual summer seminars in different parts of the world for college credit. Recent seminars have traveled to Spain, Switzerland, Costa Rica, Greece and Germany. For more information, click to CNU Seminar Abroad.
