Mount Ida College students in Nicaragua
Newton, MA -- At Mount Ida College, we encourage students to take advantage of our international program offerings. Keeping in line with our mission of blending professional preparation with a solid liberal arts foundation, we believe that a study abroad experience benefits our students in many ways, from gaining new perspectives and experiences to improving their professional and financial potential after graduation.
Global Mind-Set and Experience
Mount Ida’s international program offerings are as diverse as our students, and this fall semester is no exception. We have nearly a dozen students participating in study abroad programs in countries, including Costa Rica, Chile, England, Australia and Italy. In addition to their classroom experience, our students will be working in internships, volunteering in local communities and art museums and engaging in new fields, like ecotourism.
