While it seems that accounting students would have a hard time benefiting from a study abroad program, imagining and examining accounting through another cultural frame can give students more understanding and/or new possibilities for critical thinking. Studying abroad gives accounting students the perspective and adaptability they need to work in this field, while introducing new angles to business operations, technologies, and strategies.
See the list of recommended study abroad programs below. Please be aware that for any external or exchange study abroad programs listed, students will need to check with their academic department to see if courses taken while abroad will transfer and fulfill needed requirements.
