Course Work
While you will be required to officially enroll in one Cal Poly course in Thailand, past University of Vienna students have gotten course credit for other courses offered in the Thailand Study Program through special arrangements through a faculty member at the University of Vienna. We can provide information about how this might be done before the Program starts.
