The UVU School of Education enriches our students’ professional preparation and deepens their understanding of the world’s diversity by offering them a variety of international and domestic intercultural experiences. These experiences foster personal growth and self-reflection through participatory learning relevant to the diversity in Utah and help to enhance effective educational practice and culturally relevant pedagogy. Our destinations are strategically selected to involve locations, languages, and cultures that are aligned with Utah’s educational programs, including dual language immersion, and the state’ multicultural demographics.
