Survey on Student Interest in International Opportunities

In follow up to the focus group sessions which were conducted earlier this term, the SAF has opened a survey on International Opportunities.
We encourage all students to go into their My SAF Community page on UW-Learn and complete the survey. If there is considerable interest in the different opportunities discussed in the survey then the SAF can move forward on International projects such as study trips, exchange programs, and international co-op terms.
The survey does not take long but your participation will be meaningful and will go a long way in helping this initiative progress for all SAF students!
