In this era of global economics, Internet communications and worldwide technological advancement, and an understanding of other cultures and languages has become increasingly important. Plattsburgh's Study Abroad programs are available in Canada, England, Australia, Mexico, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. Additional programs and exchanges can be arranged through other SUNY institutions.
Internships are available in Canada and Chile and are tailored to each students program of study.
A study abroad experience supports and broadens the academic programs offered on the Plattsburgh campus. In addition to excellent opportunities in Canada outlined on the next page, other programs located at leading universities throughout the world are administered by Plattsburgh and other SUNY units. These programs provide students with opportunities to become immersed in the academic and cultural life of the host countries. Specifically, students may study the language, literature, art, culture, history, economy, government and social institutions of individual countries and world regions. Credits earned through a SUNY-approved study abroad site are considered SUNY credits, not transfer credits, and are applicable toward a student's degree program.
