Fitting it all in with your Major of Choice

[Bike ride along the Canals in Damme, Belgium]

Fitting in a study abroad experience can be a somewhat challenging task, depending on the major you are in.  For some majors the curriculum is very rigorous and stringent upon the United States' standards, but in other cases your advisor may say anytime after sophomore year to go for it. It really all depends. If you know studying abroad is something that you would like to work into your 4 years here at NDSU, I suggest planning it all out ASAP.

If you are a business major (or in some cases even a minor) there are some really great trips of a variety of lengths offered to you.
For example:
Spring Break in Eastern EU
Summer in Europe
Summer in China
European Fall Semster* --> this is the trip our group embarked on

~Engineering, Architecture, Interior Design, or really any Arts, Humanities, or Social Sciences major all will have an easier time studying abroad and sometimes a study abroad trip is even required as part of the curriculum for these majors.

~As you might of guessed, anything in the medical field is a much trickier task to work into your years at NDSU: Pre-Med/Vet, Pharmacy, Nursing, etc. Most of these majors will go abroad in the summer some way or another, since going during the academic year is nearly impossible to do.

ALL MAJORS ARE ABLE TO STUDY ABROAD!
You can too!
