Study Abroad

Industrial engineers can be found around the world. No matter where our students end up, or what international clients and partners they may work with during their careers, the education we provide in the industrial engineering program at Penn State provides them with the tools they need to become globally minded engineering leaders.

A study abroad experience is a tremendous opportunity for our students to immerse themselves in a new culture, adapt to new styles of communication, interact with international peers, and gain a worldwide perspective on some of the challenges that exist in industry, all while earning credit toward their degrees.

We have built partnerships with a number of international schools to offer study abroad experiences to our industrial engineering students, including:

• Australia: The University of New South Wales in Sydney
• Australia: The University of Sydney in Sydney
• Ireland: The University of Limerick in Limerick
• Israel: Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa
• New Zealand: The University of Auckland in Auckland
• Singapore: National University of Singapore in Singapore
• Spain: Tecnun – The University of Navarra in San Sebastian
• Sweden: Jönköping University in Jönköping

IE students are not limited to these schools. For a complete listing of possible study abroad opportunities for Penn State students, visit global.psu.edu.
