Internet services are the best tools for publicizing study abroad information:



  1. E-mail

  2. The WWW: Some of the specific applications of the Web for publicizing the education abroad office's program and services, and encouraging students to study abroad, include,


  • basic information about the program

  • important notices from the education abroad office

  • office location, hours, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses

  • staff listings, and perhaps short biographies

  • images of places where the study abroad programs go

  • study abroad program descriptions, and other information about the programs and services the office offers,

  • links to other relevant information sources on the web,

  • clickable image maps,

  • handbooks and policy manuals

  • predeparture information

  • reentry suggestions and activities; and,

  • university disclaimers and other required legal notices.
