Studying abroad is now considered an important part of a student's education. Overseas experiences give deep insight into other cultures and ecosystems and are great ways to complement your Maryland coursework. Simply "getting outside the mid-Atlantic ecosystem" environmentally and politically can be another big eye-opener, so explore American off-campus study opportunities, as well.
