Study Abroad in Africa

Click to scroll down and read more

With imitable history, scenery and cultural offerings, few regions offer a study abroad experience that is more challenging or more rewarding.

From a public health program in Botswana – with its diamond-strong pula and lush Okavango oasis – to social entrepreneurship in Ghana – the namesake of West Africa’s first great empire – with CIEE study abroad in Africa, the question isn’t simply what to study, but where?

All of our Africa programs integrate rigorous coursework with cultural engagement, including direct enrolment options at local universities, excursions to museums and game reserves, volunteer opportunities and weeklong homestays with local families.

So whether you choose East Africa’s mythical, magical Tanzania; Senegal, land of teranga (hospitality); or South Africa, with its extensive opportunities to learn and serve, CIEE has the study abroad program to take you there.
