Gatton Faculty-Directed Programs

This is our most popular program type, and for good reason! Offered during summer or spring break, faculty-led programs allow you to earn UK credit while exploring international destinations and business practices in a group setting with other UK students, led by Gatton instructors.

Gatton Exchanges

Study at a Gatton exchange partner university for the cost of UK tuition plus living and travel expenses. These programs are among the most affordable semester options but require a high level of independence. Substantial scholarships are available through Gatton College!
