Real-world experience is the focus of the third year. It doesn't matter whether you're taking a field course in the Swan Valley, farming in Nicaragua, interning on Capitol Hill, or tackling health issues in Africa. You’ll earn credits while completing an internship, study abroad, field experience, national exchange, service-learning experience, or undergraduate research. This unique opportunity will help you gain out-of-classroom experience related to your majors, minors, interests, and Global Theme. Franke GLI scholarship funds of up to $5,000 are available to help support this experience.
