“Major engineering projects have international scope and a global impact. To be successful, today’s engineer must have an understanding of and appreciation for other cultures and societies. Studying abroad on EAP is an ideal means to achieve that goal.”

–Professor Armen Der Kiureghian
Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering

EAP broadens your academic perspectives and can enhance your technical education in most subfields of engineering. You will gain exposure to different modes of problem solving—leading toward different approaches to the design and implementation of engineering projects—and you can fulfill major requirements while taking advantage of unique course work at some of the world’s finest institutions. EAP also presents opportunities to explore international business and technology management issues.

In an era of globalization, study abroad can give you a competitive edge in your future career. A growing number of engineering firms are multinational in composition, resulting in a greater need for engineers who have the cross-cultural skills and international experience to interact with colleagues and competitors from around the world.
