Beginning Wednesday, July 1 at 8:30 a.m. Central Time, you will not be able to log in or create an account while we transition to our new student portal. Access is expected to be restored by the end of the day on Monday, July 6.

If you have started any forms in your MyIESabroad student portal, please complete and submit them by end of day Tuesday, June 30. Submitted forms will carry over automatically. Any forms that are started but not submitted by June 30 will not transfer—but don't worry, you'll still have access to the same forms in the new portal on July 6.

For more details, please review our student system upgrade information. Want a heads-up when the new portal is live? Fill out our interest form. Thank you for your patience during this transition. We're excited to welcome you into the new portal and continue supporting you every step of the way.

ES/SO 360 - Designing the Sustainable City

Be a force for good by participating in our Global Pillars course, “Designing the Sustainable City,” inspired by the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Focusing on sustainable living, this course connects a cohort of students and faculty from a variety of academic backgrounds to discuss, assess, and contribute to solutions for global issues. In this unique course, you’ll identify the most pressing sustainability issues in your host city and, working in small teams, offer solutions to the issues at the local level, taking into account the environmental, historical, and social characteristics of the area. Upon successful completion of this course, you’ll earn a microcredential in Sustainability and Development.
