Safety Abroad

The health and safety of students studying and traveling abroad has consistently been a primary concern for those who lead Pitt’s overseas programs. All students earning study abroad credits and international service-learning students participate in at least one mandatory orientation program with staff from the Study Abroad Office at the University Center for International Studies. This program covers issues such as personal safety, health, insurance, alcohol, drugs, emergencies abroad, crime, and security. All faculty leading study abroad programs participate in the Safe Practices Workshop for Faculty On-Site Directors led by the study abroad director.
