Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit |
The Study Abroad Office (SAO) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is the primary unit charged with study abroad program development, oversight, and advising. SAO creates transformative learning experiences for all students to pursue their Carolina education at sites around the world. UNC Chapel Hill is a national leader in study abroad participation and ranks in the top 20 among all U.S. higher education institutions for annual study abroad enrollment. Based within the College of Arts & Sciences, the office oversees over 400 study abroad and domestic study programs in over 70 countries that enroll students from the College as well as other UNC Schools. Programs include student exchange, direct-enroll, partner provider, and UNC faculty-led programs, and educational opportunities that encompass traditional courses, internships, research, and service. The SAO employs a staff of approximately 21 full-time professionals and manages a recharge center and total budget of $30MM, consisting of $15MM in cash and an additional $15MM in expense transactions. In 2018-19, over 40 percent of UNC students participated in education abroad, and the College has articulated a goal of increasing participation to 50 percent. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the Study Abroad Office served about 1800 outgoing undergraduate students plus over 200 incoming students from UNC’s global partners. The Office is housed in the FedEx Global Education Center and collaborates with many academic and administrative units throughout the College, UNC professional schools, and central campus units, including UNC Global Affairs, to support the University’s global mission and serve as a resource for the entire Carolina community. |
