Academics
As fun as travel can be, you should remember first and foremost that "STUDY" is a key word to understanding and fulfilling the promises of a "study abroad" experience.
Students are encouraged to choose study abroad programs and destinations based on academic interests and needs, and to make every effort to relate their experiences abroad back to their academic goals and plans at Duke.
You should plan to have a good time abroad, but you should plan to study and learn as well. The lessons awaiting you will prove invaluable in the years ahead.
