The majority of these programs are 3-6 weeks in length, and are offered during the summer, though winter term and mid-semester programs may be offered. Faculty-led programs are the most popular study abroad options among UTA students, comprising of roughly 70% of all study abroad participants each year.
If none of the affiliated study abroad program providers currently affiliated with UTA fit your needs, there are numerous other providers out there that might. Contact UTA Study Abroad for assistance in locating a reputable provider.
