Study Away
Images
Luther College believes in the transformational experience of global learning. Art and Performance-focused study away classes provide powerful opportunities to understand another culture through the lens of its art. Luther's study away programs give students essential exposure to the grand art and performance traditions of the world, while also allow focused opportunities to translate such experiences in one’s own art. Beyond art and performance-focused trips, many visual and performing arts students opt to find study-away opportunities relevant to their interests through the study abroad office.
