Study Abroad

International study has become more and more popular among Boston College students and Communication majors as students realize the increasing importance of broadening their intercultural perspectives. We are communicating in a global marketplace and it is ever so important to be able to help cross cultural lines with our spoken and written words.聽

Students who are interested in studying abroad should contact the聽Office of Global Education聽for more information on specific programs and application procedures. Typically, juniors study abroad during the spring semester; however, there are certain exceptions that can be made for placement during the fall semester of junior year.

Semester Abroad Requirements

The Communication Department requires majors to have completed seven courses in Communication by the end of their junior year. This leaves no more than four courses to be completed during senior year. Among those courses required prior to travel are the four Core courses: Rhetorical Tradition, Survey of Mass Communication, Public Speaking, and Communication Methods. In addition, we strongly suggest juniors take one of their two required writing intensive seminars in the fall of their junior year, before travel. This is to allow for the second to be completed senior year. A student may transfer up to two courses in Communication as ELECTIVES from the Study Abroad placement, which counts toward the seven total courses needed by the end of junior year. These courses must be pre-approved by the Director of Undergraduate Studies, Prof. Lindsay Hogan.
