Explore the Eurasian Corridor through site visits, study tours, and professional learning opportunities
The Eurasian Corridor is increasingly important to conversations surrounding international education, security, language, identity, energy, and regional affairs. Yet many faculty and study abroad professionals have had limited opportunities to spend time in the region.
SRAS site visits, study tours, and professional development programs provide direct exposure to the places, institutions, and regional perspectives that can inform advising, teaching, research, and future academic initiatives.

Gain firsthand knowledge of academic programs, student experiences, housing, logistics, and onsite support to better guide students considering study abroad.
Explore destinations, engage with regional specialists, and identify possibilities for faculty-led programs, new courses, interdisciplinary collaboration, and other academic initiatives.
Connect with regional specialists, experienced educators, and the SRAS team while building relationships that support future collaboration.
Choose from structured site visits, individually arranged visits, study tours, and online learning opportunities offered throughout the year.
Join scheduled site visits designed for study abroad professionals and faculty.
