Australia – ARTH 167: Street Art; CHEG 420: Biochemical Engineering; CHEG 467: Project Design & Engineering
Dubai – CIEG 486-070: Engineering Project Management; CIEG 492-070: International Construction
Greece – MSEG 201-071: Material Science for Engineers; PHYS 143-071: Energy Technology and Society; HIST 339-071: Topics in European History
London – CPEG 467-070: Internet of Things; ELEG 467-070: Digital Photography
New Zealand – CISC 355: Computers, Ethics, and Society; CISC 367: Computer Science Learning Game Development
Additional non-Engineering UD Winter Session study abroad programs our students might want to learn more about:
Australia – GEOG 467/667-070: Ecological and Social Restoration of Mineral Landscapes
Ghana – AFRA/POSC 441: Contemporary Politics by Country
UD’s College of Engineering also provides the following competitive opportunities for undergraduates.
NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE (NUS) in Singapore: Qualified CHEG students in their Junior year may spend a semester at NUS to complete UD-transferrable coursework. Students pay UD tuition and airfare, travel, and living expenses. Contact Professor Doug Buttrey in Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering for more information.
Vetted Non-UD Programs
- The Technion International (Haifa, Israel) Summer Programs, which include course, lab research and internship options
- Ben-Gurion University of the Negev international summer program in Data Mining and Cybersecurity (Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this program will not take place in Summer 2021.)
- Stony Brook University’s Global Innovation Summer Field School in Kenya
Please reach out to UD Global’s Study Abroad office (Institute for Global Studies) to discuss these and other options. We recommend students seek transfer equivalency approval prior to acceptance in any non-UD program, otherwise transfer equivalencies are not guaranteed.
Non-UD Vetted
There are a number of non-UD programs available. Make sure you research these carefully and speak with a UD IGS study abroad coordinator to determine the best fit for you. The IGS website provides additional advice and program databases worth exploring.
Our engineering students have reported positive experiences with The GREEN Program, which organizes intensive experiential learning around sustainability issues in Iceland, Japan and elsewhere.
