EAP Planning for Chemistry Majors

 

Why study Chemistry abroad?

"More and more, a person does not have a complete education unless he or she has some experience in how to live and work in several different countries. Advances in science have always involved an international effort. While it is possible to perform many important international activities via the internet, there still is no substitute for a direct visit." More on this
