Frankie Villarreal ('17 BS, Electrical Engineering) wasn't sure what career path to pursue as he worked toward his degree in electrical engineering. Then a summer in Iceland studying renewable energy, technology and resource economics shifted his perspective on career possibilities.
"Afterwards, I attained an internship and soon after that was also offered a job," Villarreal said. "It really opened my eyes personally and professionally opened so many doors for me."
The Office of International Education (OIE) offers study abroad programs on just about every continent on the globe; countries visited include the United Kingdom, France, Mexico, Chile, Tanzania, Japan, New Zealand and many more. The experience is open to students of any classification and major, but it has been especially popular with those from business, engineering, nursing, liberal arts and architecture.
