SEMESTER AND SUMMER PROGRAMS
Since 1979, the Center for Global Education and Experience (CGEE) at Augsburg University has welcomed students from more than 300 institutions of higher education to our summer and semester study abroad programs in Central America, Mexico, and Southern Africa. We hope you will be one of the newest members of the CGEE community and join us.
CUSTOMIZE A PROGRAM
Since 1982, CGEE has customized international programs throughout the world for hundreds of organizations and institutions. We work with university faculty and staff, religious institutions, non-profit organizations, and other groups, to select your research topic. Then, we create an engaging, community-based learning experience. Most are 1-3 weeks in length, but we offer long-term programs as well.
