Although not designated for study abroad during the academic year, the Freeman Fellowships for student research in Asia may be used to extend study-abroad experiences. The fellowships are intended to increase understanding and awareness of Asia among students majoring in any discipline, by supporting research or study projects in Asia that result in Bowdoin academic credit. Students are expected to develop proposals in consultation with a Bowdoin faculty mentor. For more information, consult Professor DeGraff in the Department of Economics.
Some programs offer financial aid of their own.
