Study Abroad as an Online Student

As an online student at Drexel University, Kevin Hannon knew traveling abroad was expensive and didn’t consider the option a realistic goal. Then Hannon received an email from the university asking if he was interested in taking a community health course that culminated in an 11-day trip to Paraguay. During the trip, Hannon had a chance to teach illness prevention in schools and visit local health care facilities while traveling more than 1,000 miles on a bus. Hannon remarked, "it gave me a completely broader perspective on how health care delivery works outside the U.S. It was an amazing experience."
