Faculty-Led Travel Study Programs

Faculty-led programs are short-term international opportunities developed and led by UW-Whitewater faculty and staff. Programs are often experiential, incorporating active learning such as volunteer opportunities, tours, site visits, workshops, and research projects. These courses range from 2-4 credits—the academic focus and location changes from the academic year.
