Internship? Exchange? Not sure?
Which Go Abroad program type will best suit your students? Share this quiz to connect them with a "good fit" opportunity abroad!
For UAlberta students, there are abundant opportunities to Go Abroad. Take a quick peek at our program finder, and you’ll see over 300 programs in 50+ countries offered to students. With so many options, sometimes narrowing down the decision can be a little tough.
We invite you to share The Go Abroad Quiz with your students – those who complete the quiz will be matched to a program type that best supports your academic, professional or personal goals. The Go Abroad Quiz hopes to guide students towards one of four program types, exchange, internship, short-term or e3, each of which offers a unique experience.
Next up, we invite you and your students to the UAlberta Go Abroad Fair on September 19 to take the next steps!
