We are pleased to announce an engineering and technology study abroad program in France for Spring/Summer 2007. This program is run in partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology. Students will take courses (taught in English) at the GT Lorraine campus in Metz, France from May 15 to August 3, 2007.

• This is a partnership between BYU and Georgia Tech
• Students take Georgia Tech classes taught in English from Georgia Tech instructors (courses in CH En, CE En, ME En, EC En, CS, French, Art History, and Business)
• Opportunity to take field trips around Europe
• Great way to make progress towards graduation while learning about global engineering
• Both single and married student housing available
• Significant financial aid available

Description

Students are enrolled as GT students and receive GT credit. This credit is then transferred back to BYU. Not all courses will count to fulfill BYU requirements; transfer information is available in the documents referenced below. It is anticipated that some company and cultural visits will be organized by BYU. It is anticipated that a stipend of $3,000-$4,000 per student will be available from the Fulton College of Engineering and Technology.
