SUMMER 2026 Faculty-led Study Abroad Course List

This program is run like a class: it is most likely that you hear about this program from your professor, or you ask us. It is too simple to enroll. Register for the class the way you would normally do for a class on campus. The only addition, you may need the lead professor’s approval, and will have to fill out the travel forms and attend the pre-departure training to prepare your for your trip.  
The Faculty Led Programs are likely to run as a hybrid model: depending on your professor’s syllabus, you may spend some time taking lectures before traveling abroad.
For this year’s programs, CSUDH faculty will be traveling to these countries.
