We offer a variety of global programming opportunities for Merrimack College students in all academic disciplines to deepen their academic studies.
The Office of Global Education (GEO) is committed to connecting Merrimack students in all academic disciplines to educational opportunities that will deepen their academic studies and understanding of themselves as global citizens whether they study abroad for a semester or on Merrimack’s own short-term programs. Global Education is an investment in Merrimack because when our students return they come with a new understanding of critical global realities, new skills of cultural literacy, and an expanded understanding of themselves.
