Austin Community College (ACC) students can earn college credit while exploring new cultures through the College’s summer 2027 Study Abroad programs. Applications are now open for programs in a variety of subjects, including biology, Spanish, welding, fashion design, and cinema.

“Studying abroad allows students to take what they learn in the classroom and see it come to life in a different cultural context,” said Sharon Miller, director of Global & Cultural Education. “Experiencing these subjects firsthand can deepen their understanding in ways that are difficult to replicate in a traditional classroom.”

ACC’s short-term, faculty-led programs offer an opportunity for students to travel with classmates and a professor, earn ACC credit, and experience a different culture while staying on track with academic goals.

“You don’t have to be an experienced traveler to benefit from studying abroad,” said Miller. “Studying abroad is an opportunity to challenge yourself, build confidence, and see the world from a different perspective. You might be surprised by how much you learn, both inside and outside the classroom.”
