Monmouth Global Seminars, are short-term, faculty-led study abroad programs that give students the opportunity to take Monmouth courses while engaging directly with the people, places, and issues they are studying. These programs are intentionally designed to foster academic achievement and deepen students\u2019 global understanding through carefully planned coursework, on-site learning, and guided cultural experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open to students from a wide range of majors, Global Seminars are a flexible option for adding an international component to your degree. Programs are structured to fit into students\u2019 busy schedules – \u00a0often running over breaks, between terms, or during shortened sessions – so you can study abroad without committing to a full semester away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each year, more than 100 Monmouth University students participate in Global Seminars around the world, gaining new perspectives, strengthening their academic and professional skills, and building the confidence that comes from navigating another culture with the support of Monmouth faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n
