Isabella Cannon Global Education Center

A Global Learning Hub

One of Elon’s five core experiences, global education is about so much more than a trip or a semester abroad – it’s about building core life skills to succeed in our interconnected world.

We support and empower students and staff seeking new opportunities for study, internships, or teaching in new environments, domestically or abroad.

“Studying abroad allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and experience a new way of living. I was able to see the world, meet new friends, and learn different perspectives. It’s truly a special moment that will change your life and stay with you forever.”

Uwera Izabayo
Odyssey Scholar

“We live on an increasingly interconnected planet where our actions have an impact on the world around us, and when you see that in action, it is impossible to return with the same mindset that you left with.”

Ryan Elad
Elon College Fellow

“My study abroad experience not only gave me a whole different perspective on how to live life but it also changed my life. I was able to break out of my shell and make memories that I will carry with me throughout my lifetime.”
