Departmental Reviewer Directory
This is the directory that students use to find out who reviews study abroad courses for their major, minor, or language requirements. Additionally, you can provide departmental guidelines, policies, or important information for students in the notes section. We recognize every department is different and we would love to know more about specific requirements within your department or criteria you expect in coursework. See below for an example:
Departmental Reviewer: Jonathan Weiler, jweiler@email.unc.edu
Notes:
Students can earn up to 3 courses in the GLBL Major from one semester abroad (and four total for one year abroad). Students cannot earn core courses while abroad. Students must get approval for language courses from the relevant language department. Courses should include 2500 words of writing to merit credit.
