Faculty-Led Programs

ODU's faculty-led programs are short-term experiences that typically take place over spring break or in the summer. These programs are taught and led by ODU faculty members and vary in length of time abroad from 10 days to one month. Most courses are 3 credits and include mandatory pre-departure classes and meetings, experiences abroad, and final projects upon return. Every spring, ODU faculty members have the opportunity to propose new courses for the next academic year, so the line-up of programs is different from year to year. The experience you have on these programs may vary greatly depending on the location and course content.
