International travel programs
Herron offers the world to you though educational excursions overseas. In recent years, destinations have included Greece, England, France, Belgium, The Netherlands and China.
Three to six week summer sessions are planned in cooperation with educational institutions in various countries, and are conducted by experienced faculty members. Academic credit is offered to participants who complete travel-related assignments. Weeklong spring break trips to London, Paris and New York City are also available. Competitive scholarships are available to qualified students.
Herron travel programs provide you with the opportunity to study and make art in a country and culture unlike your own. You will further your knowledge not only about art, but also about the world and its people.
The IUPUI Office of International Affairs affords additional travel study opportunities to the university community.
