Hear from Jan, a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign who has been leading groups of pre-health students on educational tours for over 10-years. She provides advice on how to engage the university study abroad department as faculty to establish a faculty-led study abroad programme & how to work with third-party providers based in the destinations.
There are lessons for students and parents alike on how to prepare; including when to apply for a passport & ethical responsibility while travelling as well as how students can talk about their time abroad, so that they can differentiate themselves in gad school and job applications.
Jan also shares a few hilarious stories about some of her trips leading students abroad in this episode. You can watch Jan’s testimonial video on YouTube.
