Want to Explore The World?

Do you plan to take on the world? We’ll put you in it. Learning is about doing and seeing at Trine. Imagine combining your studies with firsthand experiences—studying foreign cultures, or learning new languages.

To truly excel, you’ll need a broad perspective, the kind you get from immersing yourself in experiences and exploration. As a student traveling abroad, you’ll learn what it means to be a global citizen. You’ll prepare to work with international companies, diverse people, and a global economy.

Pick your program
Trine offers three separate study abroad programs. You can enroll in semester, yearlong, or summer programs through our partner providers: International Studies Abroad (ISA) and GlobaLinks Learning Aboard or with our partner universities. Most students opt for one semester (typically second semester of sophomore year or first semester of junior year) or a summer session (typically the summer between sophomore and junior years or between junior and senior years).

It is critical that you begin planning early in your academic career particularly if your major has a fairly rigid list of courses offered in a certain sequence. Talk with your academic advisor and visit with the Trine Study Abroad office to discuss your options. Begin by completing the Study Abroad Pre-Planning Sheet and Application.

Trine partners with several universities. Students can choose from study programs located in:

• Rome, Italy at John Cabot University
• Paris, France at the American University of Paris
• Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria at the American University of Bulgaria
• Tegucigalpa, Honduras at Universidad José Cecilio del Valle
