Adventurous

Our Global Education Program enables you to stay on track with required lab science and humanities courses while gaining international experience. Spend a semester on our campus in Tangier, Morocco, or in Seville, Spain, for the same cost as studying in Maine, or take shorter faculty-led trips to the coral reefs of Belize, the Galapagos Islands, Latin America, Brazil, Kenya, England, Iceland and other points of cultural and academic interest around the globe.

Engaging

Your time at UNE also includes valuable experiences outside the academic setting. More than 60 student clubs—ranging from  the Nor’easter News, our student newspaper; to the Surf Club; to UNE Players, our student theater company—allow you to interact with other students and faculty members in the ways that matter most to you.
