Global Education

The world is your campus.

As a student at The Ohio State University at Mansfield, you can discover the excitement and eye-opening experience of international learning and travel through our study abroad program. Ohio State students have the opportunity to explore every continent. And as a Mansfield campus student, you will be given priority access to two popular destinations: Corfu, Greece, and the island nation of Cyprus. At Ohio State, study abroad is a safe way to travel and a closer view of another country, its people, geography and culture.

Why study abroad?

You’ll gain:

1 Cultural experiences.

You don’t need to speak a foreign language to be accepted — unless, of course, language study is part of your major.

2 Lifelong friendships.

You’ll form friendships with your fellow students — and often with the people of the country you’ll call home.

3 Resume building.

You'll have an experience that can set you apart as you move into your career and life.

4 Academic credit.

Virtually every study abroad program will count toward credits you need to graduate. Contact your academic advisor for details.

Doing so will help you make the best choice about where you want to study and which programs might best serve you and your career.
