Study Abroad
Make the world your classroom! Delta's study abroad opportunities are open to all students who want to increase their cultural understanding and gain global perspective in their major or program.
Students choose to study abroad for a variety of reasons — some are purely interested in travel, while others want to live in another country, improve a foreign language or delve into a specific topic related to their majors. Whatever your reason, Delta can help you find the best cultural fit for you and your interests.
Upcoming group trips
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the study abroad program has been suspended until further notice. Check back often or email studyabroad@delta.edu for updates.
You have options
When it comes to shaping your study abroad experience, the possibilities are endless! Travel for a semester, summer, year or just a few weeks, or enroll in a college for a semester or do humanitarian work. You can join one of Delta's group trips or use of one of the college's partners in the College Consortium for International Studies to join a different U.S. group's trip.
