THE BENEFITS OF GETTING HIGHER EDUCATION

Today's global challenges demand international competence. Students who study abroad in quality programs for academic credit; engage in service and experiential learning, internships  & research; and study foreign areas and languages are far better prepared for the demands of the twenty-first century.

Following benefits of higher education from abroad reflects the critical importance of international education


SELF CONFIDENCE & INTELLECTUAL MATURITY:

Higher Education from abroad is a challenging and exciting experience. Perhaps the most recognized benefit of international education is to promote personal and intellectual growth. Student choosing to study in a foreign university or taking advantage of a domestic university exchange program will stretch and strengthen his skills academically, personally and socially.

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE:

International higher education programs influenced your subsequent educational experiences. Researchers at the University of Georgia are finding that an academic experience abroad can reinvigorate or even greatly improve a student's knowledge & practical skills.

INTER CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT:

Students glean from their experiences of living under the confines of foreign culture, the sense of having a greater perspective of the world around them, to appreciate societal differences such as language, social customs, economics, etc. They would not receive this type of cultural exposure in a familiar societal setting. They look at the world in a more sophisticated way.

SPEAK A FOREIGN LANGUAGE:

Increase there ability to speak a foreign language. The popular theory that states the best way to learn a different language is to spend an extensive amount of time in the surroundings of where that language is spoken rings true for students who arrive back from the study abroad experience. The possibility of broadening foreign language skills increases greatly when forced to communicate in such a way different from their own.

CAREER PREPARATION

Desire to purse new and challenging educational experience. Martin Tillman of The Johns Hopkins University's writes, "In a ever more globalize economy, educators need to assist students in building a sophisticated 'toolkit' to market the value of their varied portfolio of international experiences to employers." Employers look for skills like intercultural sensitivity, adaptation to new surroundings and ability to deal with ambiguity - skills that can be gained from higher education and other international programs. Distinguish themselves from others when pursing higher education or career opportunities.
