College of Education
Students in the College of Education can take advantage of opportunities to take courses, research and participate in service-learning or internships abroad to broaden their education, expand their expertise and strengthen their portfolio as they launch their careers.
In order to have the best experience abroad, it is recommended that students meet with their academic advisor early in their undergraduate career. Review the resources on the Education Abroad pages, including the funding resources page and the events calendar.
As an Education major, students must meet proficiency in a foreign language. Students can fulfill core and flag requirements abroad via petition. For more information, view the Texas Undergraduate Studies petitions page. Remember to use the My Credit Abroad database to explore the historical record of courses other UT students have taken abroad.
Getting Started? Get general advising in our Live Q&A or peer advisors. After that, if students need more support, they may meet with a program coordinator.
Questions about credit? Review the Study Abroad Credit page for more information about receiving academic credit while abroad.
