In addition, the UC Education Abroad Program (http: //eap.ucop.edu/) offers three special features to help you choose the
right program.
- The Program Wizard (
http: //eap.ucop.edu/programwizard/) can help you find possible programs of interest.
- The Coursefinder (
http: //eap.ucop.edu/coursefinder/) database includes descriptions of all courses taken by UC students
while on EAP programs. Please note that it does not include all courses offered by the host university, only those that have been taken
and submitted for approval by UC students.
- An up-to-date list of pre-approved EAP courses will soon be available.
What classes to take
All classes taken on the UC Education Abroad Program (EAP) are UC approved courses and count toward your 180 unit requirement for
graduation; however, your major has the final authority to determine how the coursework is used to fulfill specific major requirements.
Courses are approved on a case by case basis and are generally utilized for electives. Before going abroad, students should discuss with the department advisor which EAP courses the department will approve for credit toward a major or minor. Students can often make changes to their study plan once they arrive in their country of choice, but should consult with the undergraduate staff advisor by e-mail first.
