Study Abroad
The School of Psychological Sciences encourages students to consider studying abroad. For more information about opportunities, please consult with Aundrea Montano, Study Abroad & Exchange Coordinator in the Center for International Education (970 351-1333;). After deciding if study abroad is right for you and choosing a school to attend, share your plans with your advisor and get her/his approval for transfer of credits to the UNC psychology major.
UNC offers 100s of study abroad programs in more than 50 countries around the world. UNC’s portfolio includes Colorado’s largest variety of affordable programs. Each semester students have nearly 200 options for study abroad with the same cost as attendance at UNC. While abroad, students can earn credits toward major, minor, and LAC requirements. Although psychology majors do not have to take courses in psychology while abroad, the programs listed below are recommended for those seeking credits in psychology. While it is not an exhaustive list of programs from which you can transfer psychology credits to UNC, these schools provide instruction in English, are relatively low cost, and in the past have provided a variety of psychology courses that will transfer.
