Study abroad in CEPS
The College of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the Global Education Center work closely to support students and their Education Abroad experience. You don’t have to do this alone!
We live in an interconnected world where global experience and collaboration are key to career development and student success. Therefore, there is a CEPS team of Faculty Study Abroad Advisors, listed below, who support students and their engagement during the academic advising process for Education Abroad.
How to get started
Step 1
Talk to your CEPS study abroad advisor
Reach out to your assigned CEPS Study Abroad Advisor, as early as your first year at UNH, to start the advising conversation about the best time to go abroad and how to fit it in your four-year plan.
Step 2
Meet with an Education Abroad advisor
Then meet with an Education Abroad Advisor in the Global Education Center. Get started here.
Step 3
Plan your budget and find a program
It is important that students utilize the tools provided on the Education Abroad website, such as the Study Abroad Budget Worksheet on the Affordability page. Find a program that fits your needs from an academic standpoint using the Program Search Database.

Department opportunities
Civil and environmental engineering
The faculty of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering recognize the value of, and strongly support, studying abroad as part of an engineering education. We have opportunities for our students that allow them to study abroad and stay on track to graduate on time by studying engineering topics at foreign universities.
Our students regularly study abroad in Scotland, Australia, and Sweden, and we’ve also had students study abroad in France, Spain, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, The Netherlands, South Korea and Wales. Wherever you want to study abroad, we’ll work with you to see if we can make it happen. Furthermore, we regularly have students who minor in languages or participate in UNH’s dual major program for Civil & Environmental Engineering and International Affairs.
Civil and Environmental Engineering are global professions, now more than ever, and we welcome students that want to study abroad as part of their educational goals.
