With a rapidly changing global society, the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg (Pitt-Greensburg) has made a commitment to helping students gain an international experience as part of their undergraduate education. Students who take advantage of the study abroad experiences at Pitt-Greensburg will immerse themselves in another culture; learning things they could never learn in a traditional classroom setting. Additionally, when students are taken out of their comfort zones the opportunity for self-discovery and personal growth is unmatched. Pitt-Greensburg students with an international experience will become global citizens in today's society. These same students find that their international experiences give them an edge in the job market and a greater understanding of the larger world around them.

"I had a great experience because it was my very first time traveling abroad and the school made it so easy. It was a formative experience that I'll never forget."

"My experiences on this trip allowed me to gain a new perspective of the world. The culture of Spain has always interested me and to experience it first hand was one I will never forget. Knowing some Spanish from before I went on this trip was an immense help to me. I enjoyed bonding with people who I never thought I would because of this trip. It's nice to see some of them now when we're back at school and have that shared experience in common. This trip was great for opening up my interest in more international travel."
