Department Contacts

Students should contact departmental representatives directly about approving study abroad courses. The list below provides at least one contact per department.

Students should provide advisors/departmental representatives with course descriptions and/or syllabi for each course being reviewed for approval. Courses counting toward a major/minor should be reviewed by the major/minor advisor. Courses counting toward general education requirements should be reviewed by the college/program advisor. All language courses (regardless of what they count toward at Carnegie Mellon) must be reviewed and approved by the Department of Modern Languages and must be taken at an institution that issues transcripts.
