Global & Immersive Experiences

We value our Golden Knights having a global perspective.

Many of our students choose to have international experiences during their time at Clarkson.

Options include:

  • Traditional semester or full academic year study abroad programs are available at one of our 55 partner institutions in 28 countries, such as Austria, China, Denmark, England, France, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Romania and South Africa.
  • Global Business Programs are three-week trips that take place right after the spring semester ends. Students travel with other Clarkson students and faculty to study business and cultures around the world, such as Argentina and Chile; Croatia; Italy; Singapore and Malaysia; Switzerland; and Thailand.
  • Our close proximity to Canada gives our students a great opportunity to take courses in Canadian Studies. Classes usually involve traveling frequently throughout the semester across the border to cities like Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto.
  • Service is one of Clarkson’s seven values. Student organizations and some academic courses, such as Engineers for International Sustainability and Doctors Without Borders participate in annual service learning trips abroad.
