Study Abroad Site Visits were developed for faculty and academic advisers as a tool to assist in understanding study abroad. The pedagogical model developed for the site visits allows faculty and advisers, by visiting a carefully selected group of sites, to learn about broad aspects of study abroad such as study abroad program structures and program selection as it relates to student developmental level and desired learning outcomes. Additionally, they learn about the specific process for a University of Minnesota undergraduate as the site visits are designed to mirror the student study abroad process. The experience in the academic climate and local culture provides the faculty and advisers insight into the skills and perceptions that students acquire when they study abroad. As a component of Study Abroad Curriculum Integration, financial support for Site Visits was initially made possible by grants from the Bush Foundation and the US Department of Education (FIPSE).
