Bing Overseas Studies Programs
Why participate in a Bing Overseas Studies Program?
Every Stanford undergraduate should give serious consideration to studying away
Regardless of the academic path you choose, you will be enriched by your journey in one of our study away programs. Your time with BOSP will equip you with transformative educational experiences—regularly taught by Stanford faculty—that inspire you to embrace new challenges in complex global settings. Roughly half of each graduating class studies away through BOSP during their undergraduate career at Stanford. Participating in a BOSP program will help you develop the skills required to excel in the global workforce, and will add value to your life and the lives of others.
