Significant participation in another society gives students a special understanding of another part of the world, one that cannot be gained from traveling as a tourist or from reading a textbook. Study abroad may have enormous personal benefits and contribute substantially to individual psychological growth. Students often achieve a greater maturity, independence, self confidence, cosmopolitanism, and deeper appreciation for and understanding of their place in the world. Study abroad can prepare you effectively for a career in an increasingly globalized marketplace and expand your vocational horizons. The practical cross cultural skills that you develop overseas, your exposure to diverse cultures, your resourcefulness and flexibility, and your initiative, can set you apart from other candidates competing for positions in graduate and professional schools or jobs with companies and organizations.
