College of Natural Sciences
The College of Natural Sciences actively supports students in enhancing their academic experience through courses, research, service-learning and internships abroad to expand their expertise and strengthen their portfolio as they launch their careers. Connect with CNS Abroad through the Office of Experiential Learning to learn more about going abroad as a CNS student.
In order to have the best experience abroad, it is recommended that students meet with their academic advisor early in their undergraduate career. Be sure to review the resources on the Education Abroad pages, including the funding resources page and the events calendar.
Natural Sciences majors must meet proficiency in a foreign language. Students can fulfill core requirements abroad via petition. For more information, view the university's petitions page. Remember to use the My Credit Abroad database to explore the historical record of courses other UT students have taken abroad.
Questions about credit? Review the Study Abroad Credit page for more information about receiving academic credit while abroad.
Education Abroad also works closely with the Health Professions Office to support students achieve their international experience goals.
Advising: To make an appointment with an Education Abroad advisor who focuses on CNS, book an appointment.
