USU releases information on 2021 study abroad opportunities

Utah State University plans to resume study abroad programs this year — with three European destinations on the docket.

Monika Galvydis, the head of the global studies office, said the 2021 trips will include Ireland, England and Spain.

“We are currently accepting applications for summer USU faculty-led programs,” Galvydis said. “I recommend students make an appointment with a study abroad adviser to find a program that fits their needs.”

Meg Rasmussen described her experience in Spain as life-changing and awe-inspiring.

“Studying abroad gave me the opportunity to get completely outside my comfort zone and develop intercultural communication skills that I'll be able to use in my future career,” Rasmussen said.

Sydney Metcalf urged USU students to take advantage of the 2021 opportunity.

“Embrace the adventure for all that it is,” Metcalf said. “I promise, you won’t regret it.”
