The
Program in Prague is just
one effort by UHV to project leadership in providing new
opportunities for quality study abroad experiences for
students not only at UHV, but at other interested
universities, particularly in Texas. Increasingly, today’s global economy requires that all
undergraduates, whatever their major, have exposure and
knowledge of other cultures and languages
The Prague program, has the
comprehensive goal of providing students with
a study abroad experience that will prepare them to
successfully participate in the global economy and
positively impact their ability to make intelligent career
choices. Experience and research have identified the most important elements of
successful study abroad programs.
