Program Overview

Program Description:

All units are fully transferable to any university in the United States.

When you study abroad with IGE, you receive personalized focus. Unlike the mass providers who send hundreds of students at a time to study in various countries, IGE specializes in getting to know its students and their needs. Each group is oriented and facilitated by a highly qualified on-site director whose primary concern is for your ultimate experience. Through mind-expanding travel, welcoming home-stays, and meaningful internships, students are given every opportunity to immerse themselves in the language and in the culture.

When you see the world with IGE, you simply see more. IGE program participants can expect meaningful interaction with host culture, academic challenge, personalized focus and unique travel experiences.
