WorldStrides' Undergraduate Custom Programs offer you the opportunity to design a study abroad experience tailored precisely to your institution's academic goals and learning objectives. Rather than fitting into a pre-made program, you work with WorldStrides' dedicated team of experts to create a fully customized experience from scratch—any time of year, to any destination in the world.

These faculty-led programs span the full range of arts and sciences disciplines. Whether your interests lie in fashion history in Paris, religion and spirituality in China, Renaissance art in Italy, or sustainability fieldwork in Costa Rica, WorldStrides helps you build the curriculum and itinerary that bring your coursework to life. The approach emphasizes global citizenship and real-world learning, moving education outside the traditional classroom and into dynamic, interactive settings abroad.

Your program benefits from WorldStrides' extensive global network of industry experts, cultural organizations, and community partners. The team designs engagement formats tailored to your learning goals—from company visits and executive panels to strategy challenges, community service projects, and faculty-moderated discussions with international professionals. This means your students don't just observe; they participate actively in applying their studies to real challenges and industries.

Every custom program includes comprehensive support: in-country English-speaking guides, 24/7 emergency assistance, embedded medical insurance, entry requirement assistance, dedicated expert coordinators, and financial protection. WorldStrides handles all logistics—accommodations, transportation, visas, and pre-departure briefings—so you can focus entirely on the educational experience and student learning outcomes.

Previous programs have taken students to Greece to explore climate action, Taiwan and the Philippines to investigate geopolitical topics, Colombia to study urban planning and sustainability, and Japan to examine intercultural communication. The university partnerships demonstrate that WorldStrides works with educators across diverse disciplines and institution types to create meaningful, transformative international experiences. Whether you're planning for Summer 2026, Fall 2026, Spring 2027, or beyond, the team is ready to help you turn your academic vision into a reality.
