Students
who step outside their comfort zone to learn in cities
and towns that are filled with unfamiliar peoples, traditions,
and languages change in ways unknown to those who choose
to stay behind. Those students who move forward build
enormous self-confidence and gain the ability to see
the complexity of how their own country fits into the
world as a whole.
BGSU students will graduate to become the next generation
of political leaders, educators, and scientists. In order
for our nation to continue to thrive, our future leaders
must know how to successfully participate in the globalized
world of the present and of the future. The only way
to gain this understanding is to communicate with people
of other cultures, religions, beliefs and political perspectives,
and experience life outside the borders of the United
States.
Bowling Green State University recognizes the importance
of globalized study and is committed to international
education. By the year 2010, the University hopes 10
percent of its undergraduate students will study abroad.
To encourage this, academic study abroad experiences
bearing three or more credits will count as fulfilling
the International Perspectives requirement for purposes
of General Education.
