“I think the “United Arab Emirates: Global Immersion Experience” is absolutely an asset to my resume because it shows how I am willing to step outside my comfort zone and explore areas of the world…” - Mollie Schick, UAE March 2012

“I realized that the only things holding me back are the limits I impose on myself. Study Abroad allowed me to break that limiting way of thinking and put me on track to unlock my true, infinite human potential.” - Ali El-Ashram, Doing Business in Australia January 2011

SCHOLARSHIPS: The Provost has again generously provided the Smith School with scholarships for each BMGT student who has never studied abroad with a UMD program before and who has not transferred in credits from a foreign university. Click here for details: Financing Study Abroad.

All UMD Students (including BMGT) may apply for additional scholarships through Education Abroad.

A NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR OF GLOBAL PROGRAMS, LISA BARNARD: As a study abroad student, you are not just a tourist – you are embarking on something much richer and you will have access to experiences a tourist could never have. To all the people you come across, whether at a company, at a restaurant or in the hotel, you are representing the United States and many will know you are from the University of Maryland. We trust that you will take responsibility for your actions and will be an excellent Ambassador at all times. When you travel abroad, you continue to be bound by the University’s Code of Conduct.
