For Scotties, the globe extends from our seat in the classroom to as far as a plane, train, or our own feet can take us!
During your four years, you'll engage in global learning through courses, co-curricular activities and study abroad experiences. But it doesn't stop there. Scotties have a long tradition of continuing their global engagement through studying, working and living abroad. And it all begins with your first-year Global Journeys.
