An international experience will expand your worldview and engage you with the broader business world. Decisions people are making overseas affect your business even if you don't do business outside of the United States.
Students at the bachelor's level are encouraged to study abroad. We advise you to start early in exploring the international opportunities available through Binghamton University and the entire SUNY system. Because the usual courses to be taken abroad are language and cultural, it is common to undertake this sort of study abroad in the sophomore year, especially in the spring semester.
How can you learn more about study abroad?
- Review the list of AACSB-accredited schools worldwide.
- Explore Binghamton's Office of International Education and Global Initiatives or the SUNY-wide study abroad options for more information about the SOM-accepted study abroad programs.
- Attend study abroad info sessions on campus, the fall and spring study abroad fairs, and schedule an appointment with an Education Abroad advisor.
