Why Study Computer Science Abroad? “I encourage Bren ICS students to complement their education with a study-abroad experience. These experiences can provide a unique perspective on the role that information technology plays in a global economy.  For many of our graduates, the opportunity to spend time abroad comes later in their careers -- if it comes at all. Taking advantage of this chance while they are in school can be invaluable.” Professor Amelia Regan Associate Dean of Student Affairs Donald Bren School of ICS     Suggested EAP destinations for ICS   - University of Auckland, New Zealand - University of Glasgow, Scotland - University of Edinburgh, Scotland - University of St. Andrews, Scotland - University of Stirling, Scotland - National University of Singapore Click below for some more suggested programs for ICS majors: Information Computer Sciences (doc)
