The University of California offers overseas study programs in cooperation with more than 100 host universities and colleges in over 36 countries throughout the world. More than 1,800 UC students, primarily undergraduates, will take part in this program in 1999-2000. Participating students remain registered at their home campuses while studying abroad and receive full academic credit for their work. Nearly 800 international students will attend UC campuses under the auspices of the Education Abroad Program (EAP) in 1999-2000, often with scholarships provided through UC and their home institutions. As an academic program, EAP at UC Davis is dedicated to serving students and faculty by providing global educational and information on internship opportunities.
Full-year study programs are available in Australia, Austria, Barbados, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Costa Rica, Denmark, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Ghana, Hong Kong, Hungary, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand and Turkey
EAP also offers short-term and special-focus programs. One-semester options are available in Brazil, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica (quarter also), Denmark, Germany, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Italy (quarter also), Spain, Sweden, Thailand, and Vietnam. One-term intensive language programs are available in Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, and Mexico. A field research program is offered in Mexico, two Tropical Biology programs in Costa Rica, a Global Security and Development Studies and an Engineering spring program in Japan.
UC faculty, who serve as directors at most Study Centers, provide academic advising to students while abroad. Full credit is granted for courses satisfactorily completed, and approved courses are recorded on official UC transcripts. With careful planning, most EAP students make normal progress toward their UC degrees. With approval of their UC major and college advisers, students may earn credit abroad towards their major, minor, general education, or graduation requirements.
Participants pay the same fees as at UC Davis. Additional costs and fees include room and board, books and personal travel, round-trip transportation, on-site orientation and intensive language program (where applicable) and miscellaneous expenses. The cost of studying abroad is often comparable to that of studying on a UC campus, although costs vary from country to country.
Financial assistance is available to EAP students. Those already receiving UC financial aid maintain their eligibility for grants, loans, and scholarships while studying on EAP. Financial aid is based on the cost of studying at each EAP location. Students who might not normally be eligible for financial aid may qualify for the period they are in EAP. In addition to UC financial aid, EAP provides support through various scholarships and grants. Campus scholarships may also be available based on the country, academic merit, or academic field of study. Students should contact the campus EAP and Financial Aid office for additional information.
An EAP adviser can provide full details about the
academic programs abroad, requirements, and application procedures. Staff will put students in touch with recent participants and academic advisers. Academic catalogs and detailed course listings are
available at the EAP library, 155 Kerr Hall.
Selection of UC undergraduates is subject to the following minimum qualifications: 2.8-3.0 cumulative grade point average or good academic standing (2.5) at the time of application and maintained through departure (Most language and culture programs require only good academic standing); endorsement of the UC Davis selection committee; and completion of a language requirement, if required. More than half of the EAP programs do not have a language requirement.
EAP opportunities are also open to qualified graduate students who have completed at least one full year of graduate work and have support of their graduate program and graduate dean. A detailed statement of the projected program of study is required.
Students are selected by a committee of UC Davis faculty and staff familiar with the host country. The committee strongly recommends that prospective participants familiarize themselves with the country of their interest in preparation for their time abroad through appropriate courses, books, magazine or journal articles, or newspapers. Lists of suggested courses and reading materials are available in the EAP Office.
Once the completed application materials have been filed, an applicant will be interviewed by a selection committee consisting of faculty and EAP returnees. Among other things, academic goals, some knowledge of the host country (and the United States) and proficiency in the language (when applicable), will receive considerable attention during the interviews.
Files of applicants receive the endorsement of the interview committee and the EAP director and are forwarded to the Systemwide Office of the EAP on the Santa Barbara campus, where final selection considerations are made.
In most situations, students from the University of California live as the students of the host country do, and in some cases students attend the same courses, taught by faculty of the host country in their own language. Thus, language skills are very important for about half of the EAP programs. To aid adjustment of UC students, tutorials are a part of the academic program at some centers. Tutorials assist in overcoming language problems and differences in educational practices and provide cultural background information presupposed in the courses. Tutorials are taught by graduate students or junior staff of the host university and are offered in association with courses in which a sufficient number of UC students have enrolled.
To assist in the adjustment and the academic work of the students, faculty members of the University of California serve as Directors and/or Associate Directors at most of the study centers abroad.
The academic program of each student includes: (1) an intensive preparatory course in the language of the host country (except for the programs taught in English); (2) a quarter, a semester or a full year of academic courses; (3) broad opportunity to audit courses within the host university. It is expected that students will complete a minimum of 45-49 units during the academic year or 24 semester units in addition to units earned in the intensive language program.
All prospective applicants, particularly students who intend to study abroad during their senior year, should carefully plan their course programs for Davis and abroad in order to satisfy university, college, and major/minor requirements for their degree. The provisional planning form in the application packet addresses these concerns.
Although units and grade points earned in the EAP are incorporated into the University transcript and GPA, departments and majors retain the right to determine which EAP courses will be accepted in satisfaction of major and minor requirements. Several major and minor programs have identified key upper division courses which must be completed in residence at Davis. Academic advisers should be consulted early so that the pre-departure program at Davis will be planned appropriately.
All degree candidates must meet the University residence requirement. Students planning to graduate immediately upon completion of participation in the EAP may satisfy college residence requirements within the final 45 units preceding entrance into the EAP. In addition, subject to prior approval of the major department or program concerned, the requirement may be satisfied as follows: Within the final 90 units earned toward the degree, 35 units must be completed in residence in the student's college or university, 12 units of which must be completed after returning from EAP participation. With this option, no more than 55 units taken abroad may be applied toward the unit requirement for graduation. The applicant's college dean is the source of information on the university residence requirement.
Students may satisfy GE requirements while on EAP. GE credit is determined by the student's college. Participants who satisfy all degree requirements while abroad and expect to graduate upon completion of the year abroad should file for candidacy to receive their degree in September (candidacy filing dates are established by the Office of the Registrar). In some cases, transcripts from abroad may not be received in time to be posted on the student's Davis transcript for EAP returnees to be included on the June degree list. Such returning students may participate in the June commencement ceremony; however, their graduation date will be in September.
