What is the CBU Study Abroad Program? The Study Abroad Program at Christian Brothers University seeks to promote global learning by exposing students and faculty to other countries, cultures, and languages. We seek to engage students and faculty in awareness of global issues connected to U.S. relations with the rest of the world. To that end, Christian Brothers University offers a variety of study abroad opportunities to students and faculty. Our programs, through the Lasallian Consortium, span the world and include intensive language as well as content courses. Additionally, we encourage "engaged" learning by promoting living, service, and internship opportunities abroad.

CBU offers semester study abroad in the following countries: Brazil, China, England, France, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, South Africa, and Australia. These locations are available through the Lasallian International Programs Consortium. For more information, click here.

Short Term Study: Individual Schools, departments and classes often arrange international travel/study trips to complement particular subjects or projects during fall and spring breaks and summer session. These will be posted on this site as plans develop.

Global Studies Minor: A global studies minor is a great addition to any major! All trips listed will satisfy the requirement of a study abroad experience for the global studies minor (except Gulf Coast trips) and are also open to all students across campus.

*Details will be posted as plans develop. All trips are tentative and subject to sufficient enrollment.
