The University of Maine offers education majors the chance to complete one of the student teaching requirements abroad. This unique program will give students the opportunity to learn about teaching in an international context and allow students to practice their teaching skills. Placements are available for students majoring in Elementary Education, Secondary Education, and Kinesiology, as well as graduate students enrolled in the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program.

During the program students enroll for student teaching credits at UMaine and complete the second half of their student teaching placement abroad. Typical dates are:

Spring semester: end of February to early May

Fall semester: mid October to mid December
