Such experiences have been enjoyed by students in the College of Science who take advantage of international opportunities for study and internships through the International Degree, Global Graduates, and Study Abroad programs. These are increasingly popular ways for undergraduate students with a sense of adventure to develop language skills, international awareness, work experience, leadership abilities, and academic expertise in the real world.
International programs are a unique way to earn academic credit and gain practical skills.
International experiences can take several forms. Internships can involve working with an Oregon business's overseas branch. Exchanges are coordinated for studying in high-quality science programs in English or another language, including at universities in Australia, Canada, Ecuador, England, France, Germany, Mexico, and Wales. OSU offers new challenges for those with a sense of adventure, the desire for real job skills, and an interest in making friends all over the world. Katrina McPherson , during her undergraduate work towards a biochemistry and biophysics degree, also benefited from OSU's innovative international degree program.
