Smith College pioneered study abroad as part
of the liberal arts curriculum when it introduced its Paris program in 1925. Still
a leader in international education, Smith’s four Junior Year Abroad programs
offer academic themes for the 21st century.
Geneva,
Switzerland
Students enroll with Swiss and international students in the francophone
Université de Genève, the European Institute, and the Graduate School
of International and Development Studies, where program alumnae regularly return
for graduate study.
Hamburg,
Germany
Enroll in courses with German students studying government, economics,
social sciences, humanities, mathematics and sciences. For 45 years the University
