Available Programs
Our study abroad programs fall into two main categories: LSU faculty-led and semester programs. Learn about their unique benefits below.
LSU Faculty-Led Programs
LSU faculty-led programs are directed by LSU professors and designed specifically for LSU students. You'll travel together with fellow Tigers to participate in a global learning experience tailored to your degree program.
Semester Programs
Semester programs allow you to enroll in other universities — both in the US and around the world — to make new connections outside the LSU community, and to be fully immersed in another university's world.
