Study-Service Term (SST)
Building Relationships Locally & 在国外
美国高盛学院’s Study-Service Term (SST) offers students the opportunity to approach life, leadership and career as global citizens, able to collaborate for the common good and respect human dignity across cultural differences.
All students devote at least 12 credit hours to global citizenship and experiential learning. You will discuss global issues, encounter people from other cultural backgrounds and volunteer with a community organization. If you spend a semester abroad, you will also learn to speak another language. No matter which theme, format or location you choose, SST will equip you with critical skills to navigate today’s globally connected world.
海温格式
- 海外学期: Spend thirteen weeks in one of five countries. Learn another language, live with host families.
- 连续的SST: Choose a theme and complete the four courses it offers one at a time during May terms and regular semesters. Travel for one or two three-week periods.
如何报名

海温,学期
Immerse yourself in another culture for 13周. You’ll be able to focus on the experience without outside distractions, and your language skills will improve rapidly. Many SSTers form strong bonds with their unit members and host families. Plan for a semester off-campus early in your college career to make scheduling easier.
