Study Abroad Opportunities

West Virginia University School of Nursing students can integrate study abroad into their curriculum. Currently there are two options for students to explore alternative courses in another country.

The first option is to enroll in a program that is offered on university breaks or during the summer through West Virginia University Office of International Programs. Students can explore these programs through the West Virginia University Office of International Programs. Programs are offered for both graduate and undergraduate credit. For undergraduate students, these courses could be counted toward general education requirements with School of Nursing approval.

The second option is to enroll in a non-credit service learning program that is offered outside of the spring and fall semesters or during breaks. There are organizations that offer these programs and provide health care related opportunities. The Coordinatory of International Programs for the School of Nursing can provide guidance on the appropriateness of these programs.
