Start Your Adventure with IES Abroad
You are here
Your world opens up when you study or intern abroad.
Learning is no longer confined to a classroom, but happens when you meet people from different cultures, explore new landscapes and terrains, and go on field trips with expert professors.
Work experience is no longer confined to an internship fetching coffee, but begins with hands-on learning from global colleagues and results in meaningful experience in your field.
Home is no longer confined to an address, but is found in the confidence of navigating your neighborhood, in the connections made with your homestay family or roomates, and in the comfort of crawling into bed after a a day of exploring new sites.
Study abroad with IES Abroad is an invitation to connect with the global community for a once-in-a-lifetime academic and cultural experience.
