Study Abroad with DIS - Study Abroad
"I learned so much about myself, but a lot of it can't be put into words. I feel so much more independent and self-reliant. I also came to question a lot of the values and habits that I took for granted in the US. I'll be approaching my chosen field, environmental sustainability, from a completely new perspective now. I'm so much..."

A student Brandeis University
"I learned how to be more independent, and I got the chance to experience many different cultures while abroad. Denmark is such a great place to live and I know that I will be back. After speaking to some of my friends about their abroad programs, I've found that DIS is by far the most organized and comprehensive program. The stu..."
A student Brandeis University
"If you have the chance to go abroad, DO IT! I learned a lot about myself and what my previous experiences had prepared me for and what I wasn't prepared for. I think that there are probably a lot of things I've learned from this experience that I don't even realize yet."
Yael M Brandeis University
"This program was unbelievably worthwhile. I had a wonderful time. As cheesy as it sounds I really discovered who I was once I left the US and had to take care of myself."
Maria L Tufts University
"Maybe, I learned a lot being abroad, but I feel that it made me fall behind on my goals back home. The best part of being abroad though was my internship, I would recommend that everyone does an internship while they're abroad!"

A student Wellesley College
"It was definitely worthwhile. Being able to travel around Europe may have been the most valuable- I learned a lot through my travels. I had a few superb classes in which I learned a lot too. "
Ace W Wellesley College
"Going abroad (and with DIS) was definitely the best decision I've ever made. DIS was perfect because I felt immersed in Danish society but they also gave us several weeks of travel breaks, so I was also able to inexpensively travel around Europe during the program. I learned a lot about myself abroad, and a lot about different c..."

"Yes. I learned what it means to be a 21st century person. "
A student Middlebury College
"I have learned so much from this experience. Although I learned so much in my classes, the knowledge I have gained while living alone in Copenhagen is knowledge that I could not have gained anywhere else! I have learned to be independent individual, fly to other countries alone, pack lightly! (I am the worst packer), step out..."
