In a time of rapidly growing global complexity and opportunity, international study is an increasingly important and relevant component of undergraduate study, especially for students preparing for careers in engineering or computer science. Of all the major professions, engineering and computer science are the most likely to involve international activity. In addition to strong technical skills, employers are increasingly looking for international experience, cross-cultural skills and perspectives, and an understanding of the world's diversity

For over 20 years, LCS in a partnership with SU Abroad, has been a national leader in providing distinctive international study opportunities. These opportunities include :

LCS international study programs give students the opportunity to gain global experience, develop new ways of viewing the world, form lasting friendships abroad, and deepen their connection to other countries, languages and cultures. Students with these experiences gain a competitive edge in today's multinational, multicultural environment.

To participate, students must be in good academic standing in one of Syracuse University's engineering or computer science programs or in an equivalent program elsewhere. Participants must also meet any language requirements of the host country.

Students interested in study abroad are encouraged to begin planning early. Syracuse University applicants for the International Studies Certificate Program are urged to declare their intentions early in their first year of study and consult with the international studies director to ensure that they are selecting appropriate social science/humanities electives.
