Most Hobart and William Smith students will take part in an international learning experience before they graduate. Students preparing for careers in public health are no exception, and we encourage students to take advantage of semester or short-term abroad opportunities and participate fully in the liberal arts experience.

Study abroad is a great way to broaden your perspective, gain independence, and improve your communication skills. The qualities you develop and the experiences you gain by studying abroad can help strengthen your qualifications for professional school. You should choose the program that works best for you, but the Public Health Steering Committee notes that the programs listed below may be of especial interest to public health/pre-health students.
