Spend fall, winter, or spring break abroad!

Travel courses are an affordable, flexible way to travel to another country and apply skills and knowledge learned in the classroom through hands-on learning! Students can travel with ISU faculty and staff members to all seven continents and participate in field visits, tours, and sightseeing during school breaks. This group travel option allows students to earn credits and gain international experience over an 8-14 day trip.
