Selected student-athletes will study abroad next summer.
STATESBORO – Partnered with the Georgia Southern Office of Global Engagement, Georgia Southern Athletics and the APEX program will again conduct the Eagles Worldwide study abroad program that will send selected student-athletes to spend a semester abroad (June-July), based on their chosen field of study. Participants of last year's program studied in Paris and Ireland.
The Eagles Worldwide Study Abroad Program supports the APEX program's mission to the commitment of the holistic growth of all Georgia Southern student-athletes. It aims to provide an experiential learning opportunity for Eagle student-athletes to prepare them with the global knowledge, attitudes and skills that will enable them to function as productive citizens beyond their current borders.
Georgia Southern student-athletes will go through a rigorous application process that includes an online application, a coach nomination and a written essay. Finalists will participate in an interview with Georgia Southern Athletics Senior Staff. The application deadline is Feb. 3.
Eagles Worldwide is part of the APEX program, which fosters the holistic growth of all Georgia Southern student-athletes based on four pillars: life skills, leadership development, career growth and community engagement. The vision statement of the program is to "develop confident and independent leaders to win in their careers, communities and households."
"As a part of the mission of the APEX program to provide experiential learning opportunities for our student-athletes, we are excited to be able to expand on the success of last year's extraordinary learning experience and allow them tp gain real world experiences and help foster a successful transition to Life Beyond Sport," said Gleen Hart, Senior Associate Athletics Director for Student-Athlete Development.
