"Studying abroad in Florence, Italy for an entire semester was one of the greatest experiences of my college career. I absolutely loved diving into a new culture and learning the ways of life in Italy. Studying at Accademia Italiana gave me hands on experience in how the fashion industry works abroad. Throughout the semester I was able to travel around Europe while also gaining a new perspective on my major. " - Maddie Kim, Apparel, Merchandising and Design Major, Semester in Italy at Accademia Italiana

 

"This experience is one I will cherish forever. I have always wanted to study abroad and this was an amazing opportunity. After traveling overseas for the first time, it inspired me to make a goal to see as many countries as possible throughout my lifetime. I had many great educational experiences on this trip, such as visiting a physiotherapy office, experiencing a BodPod, and hearing about some research being done in Ireland. Learning about Ireland's version of Kinesiology was interesting and I can apply what I learned in my future career, as an Occupational Therapist." - Alisa Holmbeck, Kinesiology Major, Experience Kinesiology in Ireland summer study abroad
