Planning for Study Abroad provides an overview of the study abroad program selection and application process. It discusses choosing a program based on factors like location, duration, courses, and cost. Programs can be run through Binghamton University, other SUNY schools, or external providers. Course credits need approval from academic advisors. Costs vary by program but financial aid often applies. The application process involves paperwork, references, and deadlines that are typically months before departure. Acceptance initiates pre-departure planning like finances, insurance, and information sessions.

International Students’ Perception towards Educational Tourism in the Kingdom...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
Educational Tourism is any type of educational
program in which travelers move to another location mainly
for the purpose of gaining a learning experience in that
location. This research aims to become a contribution to
other previous researches conducted in the field of
educational tourism to analyze the educational tourism
industry in the Kingdom of Bahrain as a basis for its
development to attract more international students to study
in universities and higher education institutions. The research
followed a quantitative methodology by distributing a survey
questionnaire to one hundred international students from
private universities in the Kingdom. The research adopted
the random sampling technique and analyzed the data
collected from those surveys statistically using mean, r-value
and p-value figures. On the basis of research findings it is
recommended that universities should improve their services
provided to international students in terms of quality, speed
and efficiency and to provide better facilities and more
academic qualifications and degrees. Bahrain, in general,
should create an educational environment that is strong
enough and well-reputed to attract more international
students and other universities to establish their campuses in
Bahrain.

Curbing Candidates Desperate Desires for University Education against Other T...inventionjournals
This paper discussed curbing candidate’s desperate desire for university education against other tertiary educational institutions. The paper began with a presentation of the general requirements for various types of tertiary education institution – Polytechnics, Colleges of education, Monotechnics and University. It delved into factors responsible for candidates desperate desire which include status disparity, high social rating of university degrees, excessive emphasis on university education, disparity in organizational ranking of graduates from universities and other tertiary institutions, poor funding of other tertiary institutions compared to universities and ineffective implementation of policies and programmes. In order to curb candidates desperate desire for university education, the paper recommended amongst others that: organizations (employers) should eliminate disparity in ranking and undue emphasis placed on university graduates against those from other tertiary educational institutions, other tertiary institutions should be adequately funded, government should provide and maintain equipment and facilities that encourage hands-on activities at college level in order to develop students interest in vocational and technical education offered in polytechnics, monotechnics and colleges of education (Technical), the government should institute a policy that will enable students in polytechnics and colleges of education get scholarship and also give automatic employment to graduates with technical background especially from polytechnics and monotechnics, priority should be given to vocational and technical subjects and be made compulsory at the secondary school level, campaign to sensitize and enlighten parents to desist from discouraging their children and wards from choosing higher education institutions other than universities should be on-going
The Middle East’s education market is becoming
one of the strongest in the world thanks to a recent
rise in public and private sector partnerships - Forbes Middle East Education guide 2018
Education is now widely recognized as a scarce commodity but whose investment leads to future pecuniary and non pecuniary returns. Individuals invest in human capital (HC) with hope for future returns, while family investments expect social returns. Indeed governments in the East African Community (EAC) are motivated by the perceived social rate of returns. An emerging school of thought holds that Higher Education (HE) is a big business whose investment must be carefully planned. In EAC, cross border movement in search for HE has been to say the least, the most unequal. In her own admission, Kenya’s Minister of Foreign Affairs stated that the country loses over ksh 2 billion annually in students’ mobility to Uganda in search for HE. While this has gone on for years unabated, this study interrogates the central question: why is cross border HE students’ mobility in EAC unequal? The study generates a four tier typology of integration that includes (i) stagnant integration (LL), (ii)moribund integration (LH), (iii)synergistic integration (HL) and (iv) inequitable integration (HH) based on the relationship between students’ HE mobility and levels of inequality. Overall, the study advocates for the synergistic type of integration that encourages higher students’ mobility with lower inequalities. The study was done as a spatial variation based on the concept of extreme case selection and the most likely condition. Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda were seen as influential cases to be included in the study. Uganda was seen as the destination point for cross border students movement, while Kenya and Rwanda were the exit points. An extensive but selective review of existing literature was also done as well as modest collection of primary data which was done prior to the research visit.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

that catch your attention
~
International students attending

One can start with search engines and
general brochures. Then once you
identify a program that interests you,
visit the program sponsor’s website for
details. Also review any websites by
the foreign university/institution.
~
Approach the process as you did when
you were looking at colleges a few
years ago, and visit OIP any time you
feel stuck!
• Binghamton’s Office of
International Programs (OIP)
• Brochures
• Walk-in advising
• Advisor appointments
• General information sessions
• Topical information sessions (early each
semester
• Study Abroad Fair (fall semester)
• Common Websites
• http://oip.binghamton.edu
• www.sunysystemabroad.com
• www.studyabroad.com
~many other search engines are available~
6. 3: WHO RUNS STUDY ABROAD PROGRAMS?
Binghamton University students can
participate on programs operated
by:
A. Binghamton University
B. Other SUNY Campuses
C. Non-SUNY sponsors
7. BINGHAMTON’S PROGRAMS
Approximately 30 programs available
• Billing: SUNY Tuition and any Program Fee/Tuition Differential are
paid to Binghamton University and OIP
• Credits: appear on Binghamton University transcript and will affect
GPA. Students can obtain credit approval for majors or minors through
their department advisors.
• Federal Financial Aid: Applies—bring a program cost sheet to
Financial Aid. They can review your aid package, and confirm whether
it can be adjusted based on program cost.
8. SUNY PROGRAMS
Binghamton students can participate in programs offered by other
schools within the SUNY system, with some differences:
• Billing: There are 2 Bills
• SUNY Tuition is paid to Binghamton University’s student accounts.
• Tuition Differential is paid to the SUNY Campus sponsoring the program
• Credits: appear as SUNY transfer credit once approved, and do not
affect GPA. The transcript supplement is attached to your Binghamton
transcript and becomes a part of your permanent record. *If you
already have a large number of transfer credits, meet with advising to
review how this may affect degree progress.
• Federal Financial Aid: : Applies—bring a program cost sheet to
Financial Aid. They can review your package and confirm if it can be
adjusted based on program cost
9. NON-SUNY PROGRAMS
• Billing: All payments go directly to the program provider. Students are on a
leave-of-absence from BU if they choose a Non-SUNY program. The program
provider will be the institution to provide proof of full-time enrollment.
• Credits: Please meet with department and school advisors to confirm your
credits will be accepted before applying. All credits will be transfer credits.
• Federal Financial Aid: Not all programs will qualify. Please make an
appointment with OIP to review eligibility before applying.
Students are welcome to participate in programs outside the SUNY system.
Programs outside of the SUNY System offer varying costs, levels of academic
quality and administrative support. While students are welcome to visit OIP to
discuss these programs, the staff at OIP may not be familiar with program
features due to the large number of options available.
10. 4: WHAT TYPES OF PROGRAMS ARE AVAILABLE?
Program designs tend to fall into three categories:
• Direct enrollment with a university
• Self-contained programs designed by the sponsoring school
• A blend of these two approaches
Learn more….
11. DIRECT ENROLLMENT PROGRAMS
• Offer a strong academic focus
• Many institutions are in English-speaking countries or offer coursework in English
• Students are enrolled directly with the university and may access the full course catalog
• Students are fully integrated with the university’s academic and social life
• Housing options may include dormitories, flats and home stay
• Tend to be full-semester or academic-year programs
• May offer exchange opportunities
Tip: Visit the university’s own website to learn more about course
options and other details to gain a sense for the school’s personality
12. SELF-CONTAINED PROGRAMS
• Not affiliated directly with a foreign university—courses, instructors,
housing and excursions are determined by the program sponsor.
• Tend to be designed for study abroad students--often one takes
coursework with and lives with other Americans abroad.
• Often have a strong focus on culture and/or language.
• May be available during semester, summer or short term.
Examples: Binghamton’s Semester in London and Spanish Language & Culture
in Madrid/Malaga
13. BLENDED PROGRAMS
Internships can be found as
part of a program, or as a
‘stand alone’ experience.
Examples: Binghamton’s summer program in
Fudan, China incorporates business visits as
part of the courses. Students can also review a
broad range of volunteer program through
sponsors like the International Partnership for
Service Learning & Leadership.
14. 5: HOW DOES CREDIT APPROVAL WORK?
It may take 2-3 months
after the program ends
for your transcript to
arrive and be posted to
your academic record .
If you pre-select courses
and obtain approval
before you go, it can
help speed the process!
~
If you plan to graduate
immediately after the
program, check with the
Registrar’s Office
regarding how this may
affect when your
diploma is released.
~
Students in pre-med,
the School of
Management and
Watson should meet
with their advisor to
review the best period
to go abroad. Look at
summer and short term
options if a full semester
seems difficult
As you research and identify one or two
favorite programs, print out your course
options and bring to the appropriate office
for review:
General Education Courses
• Binghamton Programs: OIP approves
courses
• SUNY and Non-SUNY: School advising
office approves courses
Major and Minor Courses:
• All Programs: students obtain approval
from the department
15. 6: WHAT IS THE GLOBAL STUDIES MINOR?
Often students find courses they’ve
already taken fulfill requirements for
the minor, reducing the need to take
additional classes.
Students need to enroll in the Global
Studies Minor before they study
abroad due to a pre-departure course
The Global Studies Minor is a unique
program which builds on the existing
‘Global Interdependencies’
requirement. It enhances your study
abroad experience with activities that
encourage reflection and analysis
Requirements are outlined online:
http://www2.binghamton.edu/oip/global-
studies-minor.html
Contact staff at globalstudies@binghamton.edu
to review how this program can work with
your current courses.
16. 7: HOW MUCH DOES STUDY ABROAD COST?
As you identify favorite program
opportunities, ask the sponsoring
campus for a detailed cost sheet that
will outline what items are included in
the program fee and what is the total
cost of the program
There is no simple answer
Every program will have its own unique price.
Detailed cost sheets usually can be found
online at the program sponsor’s website.
Binghamton University and SUNY Programs
cover the expense of sending a student
abroad by combining SUNY Tuition PLUS a
program fee/tuition differential (if the
program costs more than SUNY Tuition)
Non-SUNY programs are not necessarily more
or less expensive. It is important to confirm
if credits can transfer back and if financial
aid applies to the program before applying.
17. 7: HOW MUCH DOES STUDY ABROAD COST?
What is an “Exchange” Program?
Exchange program opportunities may be available for direct enrollment
programs.
If you are selected as an exchange student, you pay designated costs (e.g
tuition, fees, housing) to your home campus. The student selected at the
partner university pays the same designated costs to their home school.
With an exchange, each student is paying these costs at a domestic rate, so
this reduces the overall expense of sending a student abroad, and can
make a program more affordable.
You do not necessarily need to travel the exact same term as the other
student; you are each just creating a space at the other institution. Check
with the program sponsor regarding whether a program has an exchange
option and if there are spaces available.
18. HOW MUCH DOES STUDYING ABROAD
COST?
COMMON FACTORS THAT
AFFECT A PROGRAM’S COST
TIPS FOR FINDING AFFORDABLE
PROGRAMS
• Tuition/fees at the program
institution
• Housing and meal
arrangements
• Books and supplies
• General cost of living
• Airfare
• Local transportation,
regional travel and
excursions
• Exchange rate
• Be flexible with destination—
Europe is often pricier than
other regions of the world.
• Major cities may be pricier
than smaller towns.
• Sometimes a location with a
higher program fee may
actually be less expensive
overall if airfare, cost of living
and exchange rates are
favorable; look at the bottom
line of a cost sheet.
19. 8. HOW DO I APPLY FOR A PROGRAM?
Most spring programs have
deadlines from mid-September
through October
~
Fall and academic-year programs
are often due from mid-February

carefully.

the office. Check with the program sponsor
to ensure you have all of the required
application pages for your program.
Be sure to note the application deadline—every
program is different due to processing and
visa requirements
Complete paperwork neatly and ensure it is all
submitted by the deadline. Use a word
processing program or type when possible!
Students should anticipate applying for only
one or two programs, demonstrating they
have researched the best options for their
goals.

Work Backwards!
Begin with items that you rely on others to complete to ensure they will be
submitted in time:

academic references

• Study Abroad Statement—make sure your response
indicates why the program is the best fit for you
• Application forms: SUNY application and any forms
required by the host school or program

procedures; meet with financial aid to
confirm your aid package and how
