The Office of International Academic Programs

The Office of International Academic Programs has been sending Stony Brook students abroad for almost 40 years. Through our unique programs with Stony Brook faculty and our partnerships with top ranking universities around the world, we have an international academic opportunity for everyone. One of our core goals is for every SBU student to have a study abroad experience. In striving for this goal, we have focused heavily on scholarships and funding to help offset the costs. Our office awarded over $40k internally in scholarships for over 30 students studying abroad during the Summer and Fall 2017 terms. Additionally, many of our semester programs at our top-ranked partners are even more affordable than studying here at SBU! Through a recent re-branding and development of new marketing tools, we have better informed students of the positive benefits of studying abroad for personal and professional growth. Employers today are looking for students who have thrived when stepping out of their comfort zone, and study abroad has done just that for thousands of SBU students over the years. We encourage parents and families to  explore our programs  and resources for students, and please know that we work very closely with Financial Aid to help all students have this experience!
