International Studies at the University of Dubuque

International Studies at the University of Dubuque The University of Dubuque has a history of offering international experience to its students, both t

"In light of its Mission, the University will continually re-examine and adjust the core curriculum to achieve an artful and purposeful blend of the arts, sciences, humanities, and theology. Where appropriate, these disciplines will be infused within the professional programs offered. A value-laden education which focuses on justice, ethics, and responsible stewardship within a globally diverse co

mmunity will be stressed." At UD, we understand that applying for study abroad can seem like a complicated process. The Student Checklist for Study Abroad has been designed by the International Studies Office to help you prepare and research your semester abroad options. The Checklist will refer to the Course Equivalency Form that must be filled out by your academic advisor and the Registrar. If you have a semester program in mind, please print the Application and make an appointment with the Office of International Studies! Students also have the opportunity to enter the Study Abroad Photo Contest when they return from studying abroad, where they can share their favorite study abroad moments and photos with the UD community!

🇩🇴🏝️ today’s exploration by boat had us snorkeling through reefs off the tiniest island, Cayo arena, and seeing some beautiful fish and corals off the northern coast of the country! Then we made a pit stop in Puerto Plata, a beautiful city nestled on the coast with the mountains lining the city. 🐠 🪸 🤿 The natural beauty of the Dominican Republic is unmatched!

15 UD travelers are having a blast exploring all the wildlife the Galápagos Islands has to offer! Once arriving in Quito, their program started in the Yungilla community. For a service project, students tended the garden, some cleared a large tree (cut it down and cleared the wood), some made cheese, fried plantains, and labeled jams for sale. Service connects us to a greater purpose and our students got to see that magic happen through a UD - Ecuador lens. 🇪🇨🐢 now to more wildlife exploration! ⭐️

UD study abroad 🎶💃🏻 First full day in 🇩🇴 Dominican Republic was for the books! Started with a two hour tour (en español!) of the Zona Colonial… learning all about the history of Santo Domingo and Columbus from a new perspective. Everything we see is a product of past events, good and bad. The Dominican Republic today has risen out of all its trials, and there is so much pride in the people for their culture and resilience. Then we spent the afternoon visiting the Young Life Vida Joven chapter in the city to see today’s point of view. This ministry creates opportunity for positive youth programming! We supported a mural painting and enjoyed a fabulous time in fellowship and community. Next stop, Jarabacoa! ❤️
