The International Plan offers a challenging academic program that develops global competence within the context of each participating student's major.
The International Plan is a four-year program that builds global competence by requiring students to engage in a minimum of twenty-six weeks of international experience (work, research, or study) related to their discipline, to develop a proficiency in a second language, and to take internationally oriented coursework. This experience provides students a deeper global competency than traditional international opportunities.
Degree requirements are not modified but are satisfied with specialized courses and appropriate choices of elective courses, including three globally focused courses within the major area. Many degree programs available at Georgia Tech participate in the International Plan option, with more majors being added every semester.
