| Opportunities to study abroad |
| TRU's Study Abroad Centre offers an international exchange program that allows students to live and study in a different country for up to a year?and have it count toward their degree. From students who've done the program in the past, we know that just living in a strange, new place is a big part of the experience. Meeting other foreign students, learning a new language, immersing yourself in the culture, exploring the country?all this will be just as important as the learning you'll get out of books and lectures.
