The N.U.in Program is a unique first-year experience for a select group of undergraduate applicants. You’ll have the opportunity to spend your fall semester studying abroad at one of our five international partner locations. Prepare for the personal and intellectual adventure of college by exploring a new place, immersing yourself in a different culture, broadening your perspective, and sharpening your mind. After the fall semester, you’ll transition to the Boston campus in January to continue your studies at Northeastern with fresh eyes and a wealth of new experiences. CAMD students study abroad with other first-year students and earn a full semester of academic credit.
These N.U.in locations are options for CAMD in 2022
Destination Guide by CAMD Department
In addition to the international N.U.in locations, all CAMD majors are compatible with N.U.in Boston as well.
The N.U.in program offers great opportunities for architecture students to participate in the built environment of diverse regions of the world. At University College Dublin students delve into the study of drawing, model-making, and site analysis in a studio environment. Students also study architectural history and can explore local landscape geology and urbanism. John Cabot University enables students to study architectural history and field-drawing in Rome, Italy- A city filled with architectural innovations that have been profoundly influential for over 1000 years. At the New College of Humanities (NCH) in London England students are introduced to the history of architecture, first-hand, in a cosmopolitan environment that is rich with both historic and industry-leading contemporary design and museums. At Mills College students launch into their study of architecture in an academic environment enriched by vibrant maker-space facilities in a diverse city that offers easy access to Berkley and San Francisco.
To take full advantage of the varied options of the Art + Design curriculum at Northeastern, N.U.in students can consider any of the partner institutions—Mills College in the Bay Area, New College of Humanities in London, England, University College in Dublin, Ireland, or John Cabot in Rome —as their first-semester destinations, due to their excellent and compatible art and design programs, along with the wealth of world-class museums and cultural opportunities that each city offers.
The Department of Communication Studies (which includes the Program in Media and Screen Studies) offers a flexible curriculum that embraces the diversity of global communication and media experiences. We especially encourage N.U.in students to consider the programs in Bay Area, London, and Rome, where we have strong partnerships and students will receive outstanding instruction in the foundational courses in both communication and media studies.
To take full advantage of the many options and courses of study available in the School of Journalism—writing, video, audio, data, data visualization and public relations—we recommend that N.U.in students consider choosing UCD in Dublin, Ireland. It offers courses that can be applied to your major as well as exposure to exciting news and media opportunities. We make a strong effort, no matter where you are in the world, to connect you with your fellow students on the Boston campus, and with faculty, to share your global experiences and help us build an exciting and rich Journalism student community.
The Department of Music at Northeastern University offers a wide range of flexibly designed undergraduate majors and combined majors, all reflecting a cross-disciplinary approach to the study and practice of music, underscored by real-world experiential learning, cutting–edge technology, and global experience opportunities. To take full advantage of the varied and intense options of the music curriculum at Northeastern, we recommend that N.U.in students consider choosing University College Dublin or Mills College in the Bay Area as their first-semester destination, due to their excellent and highly compatible music program, along with a variety of high-level out-of-classroom musical opportunities.
As a hub for creative practice research, the Department of Theatre believes that the study of theatre is deeply enriched by fostering a global perspective. Each year, 10-15 outstanding theatre majors are specially selected to participate in the N.U.in program – students that have a high level of artistic potential in addition to their academic merits. We are creating a new relationship with Mills College that promises to have significant impact on our majors; we encourage you to consider this option. We also have strong relationships with our partners in London, Rome and Dublin
