Study Away

Study Away allows Architectural Studies majors to gain first-hand experience with a wide range of historical and contemporary buildings, landscapes, and urban spaces. In recent years, over half our Architectural Studies majors have spent at least one semester abroad, while those involved in the CISLA program also completed summer internships outside the United States.

If your focus is on architectural design, you might choose to study abroad in Florence with a program organized by Syracuse University or in Copenhagen with DIS (Denmark's International Study Program). If your interest is in environmental or historical issues, you might  study in Paris (through a program sponsored by Sweet Briar College ), Venice (at the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica di Venezia ), Milan (through in the Institute for the International Education of Students ), London (through Butler University ), or Auckland (also through Butler). Or you might take advantage of School of International Training programs in Australia, India, and Madagascar.

Connecticut College's own Study Away/Teach Away (SATA) programs will provide you with additional opportunities to expand your horizons. Likewise, the College's TRIP (Travel and Research Immersion Program) will allow you to make shorter visits to key architectural sites. In fall 2007, for instance, students in AHI 325: Gender in Architecture visited Chicago during fall break.
