Study Abroad

The LALS Department encourages students to participate in global learning programs whenever possible. We offer a summer LALS Global Internship program in Argentina, where students spend 8 weeks living and working in beautiful Buenos Aires. UCSC offers many other options for travel and study in Latin America, and domestically, as well.

Did you know you can use Financial Aid towards your global learning program (learn more here)? And yes, there are options to travel abroad for undocumented students.

Using Study Away / Abroad Courses Toward LALS Requirements

Students can use up to three approved study abroad courses toward their LALS degree requirements. You can review previously approved EAP courses (course availability subject to change, and any changes to course content must be reviewed by LALS faculty).

Courses that have not yet been approved by LALS faculty will be reviewed as needed. Students should start by submitting a syllabus to the advisor at lalsadvising@ucsc.edu, and be prepared to submit further work from the class by request.
