Study Abroad for Math Majors
PSU allows students to participate in any study abroad program that is good
for them – the following are only suggestions.
Short Term:
PSU short term faculty-led programs change from year to year. Keep an eye
out for posters and announcements in your classes to learn about short term
faculty led programs. K-State and KU and other universities’ short term study abroad programs
are open to PSU students. These also change from year to year.
