These longer-term experiences of 3-16 weeks give students the chance to truly immerse themselves in partner communities, both domestically and internationally. Because these programs are longer and highly varied, they require initiative and attention-to-detail from participants. For more details, please contact the Director of International Education Programs (shawn.Yang@indwes.edu). Students should connect with Academic Affairs Office (AAO) at least 10 months in advance as there are many steps involved with long term experiences for programs like: semester abroad/away, cross cultural teaching and international internship.
