Short Term Programs

Short Term Programs

Summer Programs, Winter programs, and Faculty-Led Programs

If you can't get away for a full semester or a full year, short term programs are a great option!

Summer and Winter programs allow you to spend from a few weeks to a whole summer in another country while earning HPU credit. Not only will you have a once in a lifetime experience, but you can also get ahead by taking classes while everyone else is on break. With some programs, like Bond University or some AIFS summer programs, you can get a whole semester's worth of credit over the summer!

Faculty-Led Programs are a unique experience where you can travel while learning from your HPU faculty! Professors lead classes to exciting locations where students can learn and experience at the same time!
