Study Abroad and Foreign Languages
For many DS concentrators, studying abroad for a semester or more may contribute greatly to their respective curricular plans. When considering study abroad programs in the developing world, students are urged to discuss their academic intentions with concentration advisors and the Office of International Programs during the earliest stages of planning. The vast majority of DS concentrators have studied abroad in developing countries; field experiences and knowledge have often been integrated into senior theses. Acquisition of relevant foreign language skills is also considered an important part of training in the study of development.
