The MEC encourages students to study and work abroad in order to further their education and knowledge about the culture and languages of the Middle East. In order to make it easier for students to know what types of opportunities are out there, we have provided a list of the major study abroad and work abroad programs.
FSU students are also encouraged to enlist the aid of the Office of National Fellowships on campus to gain more information about funding opportunities.
