Study abroad

  • Study abroad FAQs

Our students plan to change the world. Our programs make a global impact. So it makes sense to get out there and see the world we’re changing. Berkeley Engineering works in concert with the UC Education Abroad Program (EAP) as well as non-UC sponsored programs to enrich your engineering education with an experience in a foreign country.

Study abroad programs are offered for one semester, a full academic year or a summer session. Every program takes careful planning and thorough communication with your Engineering Student Services adviser and the financial aid office. You can complete such a program without delaying graduation; however, if needed, students who participate will be granted an additional semester to finish their degree requirements.

NOTE: Due to public health concerns stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, all fall 2020 study abroad programs have been suspended by the University of California Education Abroad Program. For details, please see the Berkeley Study Abroad website.
