Semester Programs
Program Types
Faculty-Led
Short-term, faculty-led programs offer students the opportunity to travel and study abroad under the leadership of SMU faculty members. These programs are offered in January, May, and Summer terms. Students can earn 3, 6, 7, or 8 hours of credit while spending one to eight weeks studying, researching, or interning abroad. All courses are either taught by or approved by SMU faculty.
Affiliated
SMU affiliated programs are hosted by well-established study abroad program providers. These programs offer a diverse array of study abroad opportunities around the world. Term program options include study at universities, study abroad programs on specific disciplinary subjects, language immersion programs, and programs with field study and internship components.
Hybrid
These programs merge the characteristics of the faculty-led and affiliated models. All courses are vetted and approved by SMU faculty. Students may have the option to enroll in courses at a local university.
Virtual Experiences
To meet students' needs both now and during future terms, we're offering virtual abroad programs. SMU Abroad's Virtual Internship program for credit combines a 3-credit summer online course with placement through our partners across global cities. Learn to excel in a global environment with international colleagues and gain remote professional networking and social skills.
