International Experience Encouraged, not Required

To increase awareness of cross-cultural and global issues, we recommend, but don’t require, ISCOR minors to gain an international experience. For an approved study abroad program, the ISCOR advisor will work with the student to enable courses abroad to count for up to two of the ISCOR upper-division courses.
