40+ countries. Your life-changing opportunity.

MISTI experiences abroad are designed to be a global extension of students’ on-campus learning. We tailor our international internships and teaching opportunities to align with each individual student’s career goals—providing experiences that either directly leverage and extend their coursework and research in professional settings, or complement their studies by pushing them to teach, communicate, and grow in profound new ways.

Whether you’re working on a big data project in Spain or teaching hands-on STEM concepts to students in Africa, you’ll be gaining the kinds of skills you simply can’t learn sitting in a classroom.
