12. Obstacles to Studying Abroad

13. Obstacles to Studying Abroad • Two major obstacles to ONU students considering studying abroad • Choice overload (see the map http://onu.abroadoffice.net) • Identify priority programs and build familiarity • Include study abroad in curriculum maps for each major • Cost • Identify cost-effective programs • Increase use of semester programs • Establish useful exchanges • Others?

14. Curriculum Integration

15. Curriculum Integration • Integrating study abroad courses into the curriculum for each major can reduce choice overload • Identify at least 2 study abroad programs for each major that include appropriate courses for the major, including Gen. Ed. • 1 English speaking location • 1 non-English speaking location • Clearly show how it fits in the schedule • Which year (Sophomore or Junior) and semester (Fall or Spring)? • Identify course equivalencies (or elective credit) • Note: a Gen. Ed. tag is waived for each 6 credits

16. Curriculum Integration • Begin with Priority Programs and expand as necessary for each discipline • USAC • University of Salford, Manchester, England • Longer-term goal: establish exchanges and ONU programs
