Study Abroad

Students in the department will often participate in study abroad opportunities offered either through the UO, or through other schools or programs located both domestically or overseas. For information on programs offered through the UO, go to the Summer Offerings webpage.

Examples of programs offered outside of the UO have included the DIS program in Copenhagen, study in Norway and Sweden offered through UC Davis, and a summer experience in Costa Rica offered by SUNY Buffalo. Students will also often elect to travel, either on their own, or as part of a scholarship-funded exploration that meets their own interests or that meets an area of concentration interest that they have.

The Landscape Architecture department also has partnered with Lincoln University in New Zealand to establish an exchange program for students. This program enables students at the UO to travel to Christchurch for two terms and study landscape architecture in the program at Lincoln. Students interested in work on the Pacific Rim, or in the landscape of that region of the world, have found this experience to be an amazing opportuniity to experience life overseas while pursuing their degree.
