In collaboration with the Center for International Academic Programs, the College helps make available to its students a variety of study abroad programs that provide an exciting way to add a global dimension to their UMKC education through exploring and sharing the cultures of other countries.
Study abroad programs are available for a summer, semester or academic year. Students can earn credit towards their degree, and with careful planning, they should lose no time toward graduation. Study abroad is affordable since financial aid and scholarships are applicable to many programs, and other grants and scholarships are available specifically for study abroad.
The exchange university consortium, Mid-American Universities International, InterFuture, foreign exchanges offered through the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, and the Missouri-London program are among the many program choices available. Among the possible destinations are:
Argentina England Korea Scotland
Australia Finland Lithuania Slovenia
Austria France Malta South Africa

Costa Rica Iceland New Zealand Switzerland
Czech Republic Ireland Norway
