Bon Voyage: Trends in Student Travel Abroad

NAFSA Association of International Educators has released its “Trends in U.S. Study Abroad” with statistics of U.S. students enrolled at institutions of higher education in the U.S. and about 10 percent of U.S. graduates. Nationally, the number of U.S. students studying abroad has increased 2.3 percent. The report was partially inspired by the “2014 U.S. Business Needs for Employees with International Expertise” that revealed 40% of companies surveyed missed international business opportunities because of a lack of internationally competent personnel.
