Onsted Native Experiences University Life in Canada

HOUGHTON, MI (12/20/2012)(readMedia)-- Kimberly Barton, an anthropology major at Michigan Technological University from Onsted, recently returned from studying at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ont. 

In Michigan Tech's Study Abroad program, students take university courses in other nations and broaden their perspectives in several ways. They grow personally, through an exposure to new cultures and places; academically, through access to courses not available at Michigan Tech and from different perspectives on topics taught at Michigan Tech; and professionally, as companies often hire students who have traveled and studied abroad.

Michigan Technological University (mtu.edu) is a leading public research university developing new technologies and preparing students to create the future for a prosperous and sustainable world. Michigan Tech offers more than 130 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in engineering; forest resources; computing; technology; business; economics; natural, physical and environmental sciences; arts; humanities; and social sciences.
