چکیده (انگلیسی):

This paper describes the process for expanding an existing ten year study abroad program
between two universities, the University of Texas Pan American, Edinburg, Texas, and the
Leuphana University, Lueneburg, Germany. The model for this reciprocal educational program
will include a process for enrollment, suggested curricula, course scheduling, sources for
financial aid and student living accommodations. Technology will be a resource tool to increase
student access for bridging these educational barriers. This model will facilitate the process for
students from both universities to study abroad for a semester while earning credits in their area
of study. This paper will further address cultural diversities and language differences that may
hinder communications and impede learning.
