Summer Study Abroad

Over the past 10 years, CCA has developed an extraordinary reputation for high quality, unique summer study-abroad programs.

All courses are developed and led by CCA faculty. Some are interdisciplinary and should be of interest to students from many different disciplines; others are discipline specific. Please be sure to review the prerequisites for the course that interests you.

Registration begins on Thursday, March 1, for all study abroad and out-of-state summer courses. Students should register by Friday, March 30. Students may register after this date on a space available basis. Please check with the Office of Special Programs, 510.594.3710, after this date.

Interested students should contact the appropriate course instructor right away to start the approval process for registration.

After approval has been obtained, students must register in-person at the Student Records Office on either campus.

Eligibility

CCA summer study-abroad programs are designed for current CCA students. That being said, in the event that there are any unfilled spots in a program after March 30, we are happy to consider enrolling strong students from other AICAD schools or colleges/universities into the program. Please contact the Office of Special Programs if you wish to explore this possibility.

Fall/Spring International Exchange

CCA provides two unique programs that allow students to learn about international cultures: summer study abroad (described on this page) and international exchange (described at International Student Affairs).
