Faculty-led Short Term Study Abroad Programs

Follow these procedures for developing a UNH faculty-led study abroad program of less than one month in duration.

Faculty-led, short-term study abroad programs and activities assume special responsibilities. The following guidelines and program proposal forms should be implemented by all international program directors to ensure the safety of all participants.

Faculty-led, short-term study abroad programs comprise most of the following features:

  • UNH course or extra-curricular trip
  • On-site supervision and/or instruction by a UNH professor for the duration of the program
  • Students typically will earn UNH credit or a combination of UNH credit and transfer credit
  • Duration is less than one month and takes place during January-term, winter and spring breaks, or summer

UNH policy prohibits study abroad in countries or areas that the U.S. Department of State rates as Level 3: Reconsider Travel or Level 4: Do Not Travel. U.S. Department of State Travel Advisories are available online at: http://travel.state.gov.
