Study Abroad

Hey everyone! My name is Alex and I am studying abroad in Munich, Germany through Wayne State University’s Junior Year in Munich program! I am currently a junior English major and German minor on the accelerated education track. I chose this program because of how the partnership between the two universities operates. I can take German language courses with native English speakers to refine my skills and improve my fluency while also taking classes directly from German university faculty with enrolled students within the university.

Hi everyone! I’m Erika, a junior double majoring in journalism and history and minoring in economics. This spring, I’ll be studying in Nagoya, Japan, at Nanzan University’s Center for Japanese Studies! I chose Nanzan University for the many opportunities it allows me to practice my language skills outside the classroom– from letting me stay with a host family to going on field trips to other parts of Japan. Nagoya is a city steeped in history as well as a hub for innovations in art, business, and technology, so I’m beyond excited to explore all that it offers and share my experiences with you. I also hope I get to see the cherry blossoms in bloom this season– fingers crossed!

I’m so excited to be studying abroad at University College Dublin at the School of Social Science as a double major in philosophy and political science with a minor in music. I chose my program because I wanted a rigorous academic experience while also being in a beautiful environment. I am super excited to try out a more traditional college experience. Some of my classes will have up to 200 students! Compared to Fordham, UCD is a huge school, so I hope to meet many new people. I am looking forward to starting 2024 in Ireland!I am looking forward to focusing on more domestic travel and getting to know the personalities of each Irish country throughout my stay. Maybe I’ll even learn to speak some Irish!

Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m studying abroad at Fordham’s Gabelli School of Business in London! I’m currently a sophomore majoring in finance, making London a clear choice for me. I’m extremely excited to meet new people, experience different cultures, and expand my comfort zone. This will be my first time out of the U.S. and what better way to do it than explore all that London and the rest of Europe have to offer. I chose this program because of the opportunity to make lifelong memories while being able to learn outside of the classroom from industry experts, a chance too great to miss out on. I can’t wait to share my journey throughout this semester!

In the spring semester, I will be studying abroad through Fordham in Granada at El Universidad de Granada! I’m in my junior year, and double majoring in Journalism and Latino Studies. I’m really excited to work on my Spanish speaking so right now, I’m most looking forward to meeting my homestay family, making new friends, and exploring the city, and the second-most exciting is probably going to be filling up an entire suitcase with thrifted European clothes while I’m there. I chose this program because I love to travel and I’ve only visited Europe once, so I’ll have much to explore and discover while I’m there. Plus, I knew I wanted to be in a Spanish-speaking country, so the choice was obvious!

Hello, my name is Grace Yearwood! I am currently a junior majoring in Environmental and Humanitarian Studies at Fordham College at Rose Hill.

I am most looking forward to meeting new people with similar interests, learning about South Africa, immersing myself in the culture, and exploring the area, especially the outdoors.
