International Opportunities

We cannot succeed in today’s globalized world without understanding the variety of cultures and traditions that shape it. The events, trends, people and products that influence us every day are increasingly the result of a global melting pot of international traditions and aspirations.

Preparing students for this reality is a core part of Webster University’s mission. With total immersion academic programs including an acclaimed study abroad program, campuses on three continents, and students from nearly every country in the world, Webster’s growing international network of campuses, faculty and students ensures each student has ample opportunity for a truly international education. Indeed, "The sun never sets on Webster University."

Students in the Department of Behavioral and Social Sciences have attended classes in Cha-Am/Hua Hin (Thailand), Geneva (Switzerland), Leiden (The Netherlands), London (England), Shanghai (China), and Vienna (Austria). In addition, several faculty from the BSS department have taught in these locations.
