In addition, the colleges sponsor over 20 short-term international programs around the world each year. Studies have shown that students who study abroad become more successful across cultures due to the exposure to new places and cultures. This facilitates students' development of independence, self-confidence, and openness to change. [16]
By supporting both long- and short-term experiences, EBU helps students take risks and experience different cultures. Our short-term experiences are designed to encourage students who were unable or unwilling to participate in a long-term study abroad program to explore other opportunities after gaining confidence in themselves and their travel ability. [17]
After students return, they can enroll in a post–study abroad classes for students to intentionally reflect on their experience, become a peer mentor for students considering study abroad, or participate in internship experiences related to international topics of interest.
