Study Abroad
There are many opportunities for current students to gain international experience while attending Oregon Tech. Students who study abroad develop international skills and global understanding, and see the world in a whole new perspective. It is never too late to spread your wings and fly! Studying abroad is easier than you may think. Look into it now!

Study Abroad with IE3 Global!

This third-party organization has fully developed and supported study abroad programs, exchange partnerships, and international internships that are available to students throughout the Northwest. The advantage of participating in an IE3 Global study abroad or international internship is that they help you plan your courses, plan your travel, make housing arrangements, and help you with your transfer credits upon your return to Oregon Tech. You will continue to be enrolled at Oregon Tech while you are abroad (at no additional cost) and any Financial Aid packages that you have can be applied to these programs! 

 

Find your own experience!

Oregon Tech students are encouraged to explore the world and find a program abroad that is right for you.
