Study Abroad Alumni

The staff at CIE has broad knowledge of the many different study abroad programs out there, and can help you narrow down your options. Chances are you also want to hear from other students who have already gone abroad; this first-hand experience is invaluable to hear. If you would like to talk to a returned study abroad student, let us know and we will try to connect you. In addition, you may want to join the UNH Travel Bugs.

UNH Travel Bugs

The UNH Travel Bugs is a student organization recently recognized at UNH. It is a common interest group for people who are passionate about traveling and learning about new cultures. The UNH Travel Bugs was set up by study abroad alumni and they are a great resource for students considering going abroad. Their activities are numerous:

• conducting presentations on various regions of the world
• initiating sessions and events about international travel, work, volunteer and intern abroad opportunities
• bringing alumni from different countries and different types of programs together with students interested in studying abroad.

Alumni talk about their experiences and share advice. The UNH Travel Bugs also collaborate with international students on campus and partake in the study abroad pre-departure orientation and re-entry-related conferences.
