Welcome to the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater's Center for Global Education's Faculty-Led International Courses Page! We are proud to offer an ever-expanding list of international courses for university students. These programs are short term University of Wisconsin-Whitewater faculty-led courses for credit. Our faculty-led program's international component typically runs for ten days to four weeks. These are academic classes that take place at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater followed by course work at an international destination pertinent to the studied subject matter. These courses are offered in a wide variety of academic subject areas. This global opportunity is ideal for students who are unable to do a traditional study abroad program or want to build on their global experiences. We encourage all students to broaden their horizons and make them more competitive in the global job market by participating in an international educational experience. Regardless of your major, minor, or financial status there is an international opportunity for you. Please browse through our program descriptions and feel free to visit the Center for Global Education to learn more about the exciting opportunities we have offer you. Please don't hesitate to set up an appointment with me if you have any questions about our faculty-led international courses.
