Study Abroad
Students in the Global Communication M.A. program are encouraged to study
abroad for a semester, summer, or for other short programs as an integral part
of their degree.
The Elliott School has a growing list of International
Exchange Partner where students can study to earn up to 10 credits towards
the joint M.A. degree. Taking courses at these locations around the globe
gives students access to new hundreds of courses in both policy and regional
studies and the opportunity to study alongside future leaders from other
nations. The majority of institutions have a full curriculum in English.
Students in the Global Communication program can also participate in GW
Summer Abroad programs. New programs are announced each December. Students
may also participate in other
accredited study abroad programs, with the permission of the Program
Director.
