Faculty-led programs are a perfect way to introduce yourself to the world. The time commitment to being abroad is short, the insight you get to a specific subject is enormous, and the opportunity to bond with mentors and peers is great.
Mercer students have the opportunity to go abroad with professors for a period of 2-5 weeks. Faculty-led study abroad courses can occur entirely off-campus or as a short-term component of a semester long course.
