Study Abroad
Every year, more than 10 percent of cadets pursue an international learning experience.
By combining an intellectual quest with firsthand exposure to different cultural traditions, cadets gain a global perspective and acquire important life skills—critical thinking, independence, flexibility, resilience, and the ability to interact and communicate across differences. Cadets often describe their education abroad experiences as extremely rewarding and life-changing.

Significant international experience is an important part of a VMI education. To help facilitate this, VMI faculty lead and/or direct several programs each summer for cadets from a wide variety of majors.
Cadets are encouraged to study abroad for a semester during their time at VMI. Programs are available for every major and in almost any location in the world.
