There's so much more to studying abroad than choosing a country and picking a course. It’ll be one of the most exciting times in your life that you'll never get a chance to do again, so you’d better choose your destination carefully. 

Study abroad programs are the hottest trend in education today. The number of students studying abroad has risen by more than 40% since 2000, according to the Institute of International Education.

And we’re not surprised! The benefits of studying abroad are endless.

Whether you're looking for a change of scenery, an opportunity to learn about another culture, or a boost for your global mindset, studying abroad will be the only effective way to improve your knowledge and skills; it’ll open your path to becoming the professional you’ve always wanted to be. One that is ready to lead a globalized world that changes every minute.

Why Opt for Education Abroad? 

  • You'll gain new skills and experience that’ll help you stand out from other candidates when applying for jobs after college.
  • You'll build up your resume with multicultural skills and unique experiences that can't be taught in classrooms.
  • You'll learn how to adapt quickly to new environments, which will make it easier to perform well in any situation — whether you're interviewing for a job or managing a project at work.

4 Best Places in the World to Study Abroad

All of Schiller's campuses are located in countries that are among the world's most popular for studying abroad, according to Educations.com

So if you’re looking to have an unforgettable experience in a country that offers real opportunities for growth and development while having a good time visiting incredible places, you should choose one of these:

Spain 

The life and culture you’ll find if you decide to study in Spain will make your overall experience a dream come true. It’s a welcoming country, full of opportunities and an internationally respected high-quality education system.

And if you’re looking for a sprawling and bustling city, Madrid should be one of your options. It’s a perfect balance of education and life experience, and with Schiller University you can enjoy it at a higher educational level.

Who wouldn't want to come here?

The United States

The United States is one of the most requested cities for students from all over the world, as well as recent graduates who want to boost their careers. 

There is no doubt that the opportunities here are growing everywhere, nonstop. But if you’re looking for a setting with options, you cannot miss Tampa, another place where you can choose to elevate your learning experience with Schiller International University.

Offering paradisaical beaches and a unique university atmosphere surrounded by one of the most powerful economies in the United States, Tampa is a hub for entrepreneurship. Business and networking go together here like nowhere else. 

Nevertheless, Tampa has some of the most incredible sports events; even a Superbowl has been held here! 

What more could you wish for, other than an authentic experience in Florida? Indeed, it’s one for the books.

France

France occupies one of the highest places in research and development worldwide. And we’re not surprised. It offers high-quality education, the summit of international relations, home of some of the most powerful research centers in the world, and an extraordinary projection of employability. Especially in Paris.

As the world's capital, Paris is one of the most important political, economic, and cultural cities. It’s the pinnacle of international relations and a booster for any professional career. Its outstanding culture and architecture perfectly match its powerful economy, which is the sixth largest in the world. 

So, if you’re thinking of going to college in France, Paris might be the best place for you to go. Even more so if you do it with Schiller University, experiencing and discovering everything this city has to offer.

Germany

Universities in Germany have always been among the most highly rated, since international students enjoy a lot of privileges in this country, such as its wide range of programs and many opportunities to grow professionally.

In Germany, there’s a city that surpasses all others, making it one of the best destinations in the world to study and grow. We’re talking about Heidelberg.

Heidelberg is an international high-tech hub, known to be the first port of call for research; your job opportunities here are as wide ranging as its campus life (you will never lack friends or fun experiences), and it is recognized worldwide for its ecological commitment, as its very active in terms of sustainability.
