OFF-CAMPUS STUDY

Whether it's interning in London, studying in Spain or doing research in Germany, most Hobart and William Smith students will have had some kind of international learning experience before they graduate.

With some planning, psychology majors can travel abroad and still graduate on time. While the Center for Global Education offers abroad programs on six continents, faculty from the psychology department sponsor programs in Wales and Hong Kong.

Carmarthen, Wales

As part of the Wales program, students will have the opportunity to live and take classes alongside Welsh and international classmates. To facilitate engagement with the local community, all students must participate in an academic or extracurricular immersion experience; this may include a credit-bearing internship, a school practicum, or a service-learning project.

Lingnan, Hong Kong

The Lingnan University exchange program seeks to provide students with quality education distinguished by the best liberal arts traditions from both East and West. It adopts a whole-person approach to education, teaching students to think, judge, care and act responsibly in the constantly changing circumstances of life in Hong Kong, the region and the world. The university is officially "bilingual" with the majority of classes offered in English to both its international and Chinese students.

 

GLOBAL PROGRAMS

At HWS, students have the freedom to study at any of our Global Education destinations.

The featured abroad programs are recommended by the Psychology department based on content of the curricula.
