• Experience in-depth study abroad – something that is ideal preparation for undergraduates considering graduate research programs.

Summer research programs abroad will challenge your academic knowledge and critical thinking skills while opening up a whole world of cultural, societal and historic experiences to you. Choose from a variety of summer research programs available through Arcadia Abroad and our international partner institutions in England, Spain, Ireland, Italy and Scotland. Whatever your research interest, we will help you find the program that best fits your needs.

Research experiences with Arcadia Abroad allow students to participate actively in the research environment. Over the course of the summer, students will participate as active members of a research group, develop research goals, and build an experimental strategy to achieve these goals.

Through this experience, students will explore hypothesis-driven research, investigate the role of literature exploration in the development of the research hypothesis and research plan, learn to work collaboratively with other group members, and present and write about their research in an intelligent thought-provoking manner.

Our staff will work with you and your academic advisors/professors to find the best program fit for you.
