“Preparing Buckeyes to be students of the world.”
For Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI) students, a global education experience is often the most transformational opportunity of their academic career. ODI has expanded its global education opportunities in recent years, offering learning trips to France-Morocco, Guyana, and Panama with more locations in development. All ODI affiliated programs offer students a chance to broaden their thinking and expand their horizons in ways they could never have imagined.
Why should you participate? Global Education:
- Invests in your future- employers, graduate schools and researchers all look for global experience
- Offers global and cross-cultural competencies
- Cultivates personal, professional, and intellectual growth
- Enhances awareness of yourself and your own culture
- Develops self-reliance and problem-solving skills
- Creates confidence and adaptability
