Study away
Study away programs are designed and led by Furman faculty, ensuring that you continue to receive a quality Furman education while traveling off-campus. Study away offers tremendous, often transformative learning opportunities. Our teachers accompany you on these experiences, providing academic direction before, during, and after the trip, teaching courses and creating assignments. To have your teacher serve as guide and mentor is invaluable. Faculty help keep the disciplinary lens focused, answer tough questions, and capture the "teachable moments." When the opportunities present themselves, faculty emphasize the differences in cultures and societies and instill respect and tolerance for others. As a result, our study away fulfills the goals of Furman's liberal arts program. This important part of your education also aligns with Furman's mission to educate the whole person intellectually, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.
