Knowledge of and experience with a culture
other than one's own is a goal for every student
at Whitworth. Through its innovative 4-1-4
academic calendar (four-month semesters
sandwiched around a one-month January term),
the university offers dozens of faculty-led, study abroad
programs around the world.
Whitworth's goal is to ensure that all students who
wish to do so are able to study abroad or in a different
culture in the United States. Opportunities include
Jan Term and semester-long
programs led by Whitworth faculty or placements
through an expanding network of partner universities
throughout the world. Cross-cultural
experiences in international and domestic
locations challenge students' assumptions, value
systems and commitments. Participants return better
prepared to live and work in today's global,
interdependent society.
