Study Abroad
There are a wide range of academic, personal, and professional benefits to be gained through studying abroad. Many students find it is a truly transformative skill-building experience. Tufts University has been offering study abroad programs to undergraduate students for five decades. You may also choose from hundreds of approved programs run by non-Tufts providers. Get started with "Study Abroad First Steps" and then come to meet with us during drop-in hours.
Upcoming Events & Deadlines
University Chaplain The Reverend Greg McGonigle announces that after five years of dedicated service as Muslim Chaplain, Dr. Celene Ibrahim will be departing Tufts this summer to join the faculty of the Groton School in Groton, Massachusetts, where she will teach religious studies, philosophy, and ethics. We are so grateful for all of the work Celene has done to build up Muslim Life at Tufts and for all of her contributions to our team and to the campus.
All are welcome to celebrate the life of Shubha Debnath, A21 who passed away unexpectedly in February. We will gather for music and reflections in the Tufts Interfaith Center and then plant a tree in his memory by Miner Hall. An opportunity to do artwork and share refreshments will follow in the Rabb Room, Lincoln Filene Center. With any questions, please contact Tufts University Chaplain The Reverend Greg McGonigle at greg.mcgonigle@tufts.edu.
For the final concert of the season, Tufts Symphony Orchestra presents a wide variety of stellar works, old and new.
TSO's musicians will be collecting optional donations at the door to help fund their upcoming tour in 2020.
