Study Abroad Fair
Discover why so many Badgers make study abroad a part of their experience at UW-Madison!
The fair is a great way to learn the basics of the study abroad planning process, explore programs, international internships, research opportunities, and more!
You can even explore how to fund your experience abroad and begin to focus your search to find the program that’s best for you.
Don’t speak another language? Not a problem! Check out programs with no language requirements, including opportunities to begin learning a language in locations like Costa Rica, Italy, and South Korea.
Download the Wisconsin Welcome App to ensure a smooth check-in process when you arrive at the fair!
This event is part of UW–Madison’s International Education Week.
