Welcome!
Pittsburg State University has a wide range of Study Abroad Program
opportunities designed for undergraduate and graduate students. You may choose to travel for
a few weeks to one or more countries with group program options or plan an individual study
abroad experience for a semester or full academic year.
"It is rare that a person has the opportunity to have a life-changing
experience. Students who participate in our Study Abroad programs regularly come home saying,
"it has changed my life!" This may be an opportunity that will not come by again.
Please consider internationalizing your academic
experience with a Study Abroad program at
Pittsburg State University."
Chuck Olcese, Director of International Affairs
