About us

The Alliance for Global Education, LLC, a not-for-profit partnership of the College of Global Studies at Arcadia University and the Institute for Study Abroad, Butler University, was formed with the vision of opening study abroad destinations in Asia to an ever-growing and more diverse U.S. undergraduate population. The Alliance provides stimulating, interdisciplinary study abroad programs in China and India that maintain the high academic standards, strong student services, and careful health and safety measures of our partner institutions.

Our range of programs in China offer students unique opportunities to study Chinese language, urban and environmental studies, East Asian studies, international business, and anthropology and art history. Our programs in India are strongly based in development studies and emphasize field-based experiences through the lens of public health, environmental studies, social justice, and South Asian studies.
