Immersion

An Education
Connected to the World

Two International Experiences to Expand Your Clinical Training

  • International experiences are an integral part of the APSY undergraduate curriculum and are included for all students between the third and seventh semesters. The entire class participates together, as an integrated part of their academic journey.
  • Throughout their education, students will take part in two international experiences. One will take place in the United States. The second may take place in the United States or Europe, depending on the program.
  • Participation in these international experiences is already included in the undergraduate program. Students only need to cover the cost of airfare.
  • The focus is on broadening students’ clinical perspectives through exposure to different cultural contexts, connecting science, practice, and the world while enriching their professional journey.

*International experiences are part of the undergraduate program’s academic curriculum and are optional. The format, destinations, institutions, and activities are defined and confirmed for each cycle and may vary depending on availability and the academic calendar.
