Penn State New Kensington is an active participant in Penn State Global Programs. We provide students with a variety of opportunities to study in foreign countries for varying periods of time—a week, a summer, a semester, or a full year.
Our objective is to offer our students a broader education than can be obtained through classroom experiences. To help foster this mindset, the campus sponsors international trips, and provides courses with an embedded international component. These courses involve one to two weeks of international travel and are offered at the campus or online.
Country of Focus:
In 2007, the campus began a “Country of Focus” program that provides students with international cultural enrichment through classroom experiences and a variety of extra-curricular events, including speakers, dance and music performances, exotic dining opportunities, and movies. The entire campus community has the opportunity to participate in the selection of each year’s “Country of Focus”.
Please contact the campus Global Programs coordinators or your academic adviser for more information.
