EDUCATION ABROAD at the University of Virginia 2011-2012 Statistics Report I. A Year in Review Overall U.Va. student participation in education abroad through both programs and independent research in 20112012 remained stable. The following fluctuations within different terms and populations are worth of noting: Undergraduate participation in study abroad programs grew by 4 %. The most notable increase was in January term participation (19.9%), most of the terms showed a slight increase (0.5 – 1.7%) with the Fall semester showing a small decrease of 2.3%. At the same time, undergraduate participation in independent projects/research abroad dropped sharply – by 43% - which may be attributed to more limited funding or higher scrutiny of project proposals. Graduate participation showed the reverse trend. Participation in study abroad programs dropped by 7.9%, whereas participation in research and independent projects increased by 26% - most probably due to improved reporting to the ISO. Overall graduate participation in education activities abroad rose by 2.9%. Please note that starting this year, the data for short-term programs “embedded” into a regular semester, e.g. Darden School’s Global Business Experiences, or Architecture School’s graduate studios abroad, are being reported separately from the full-semester data.

Student Participation Based on the data available to the ISO on June 23, 2012, U.Va. student participation in education abroad in 2011-2012 remained strong. 1,922 U.Va. students studied abroad or engaged in research abroad in 2011-2012. This number includes 598 graduate students - from the College of Arts and Sciences, Darden School of Business, Law School, Medical School, School of Nursing, Curry School of Education, and the School of Architecture. 1,324 were undergraduate students.

** These numbers do include students who may have studied abroad multiple times during the year.

Participation in Education Abroad as percentage of the student body (degree seeking only): 9.1% of all undergraduates participated in education abroad (1,324 out of 14,591) 9.2% of all graduate students participated in education abroad (598 out of 6,515) 9.1% of all U.Va. students participated in education abroad (1,922 out of 21,106)

Participation in Education Abroad as percentage of graduating class: The number of undergraduate students who studied or conducted research abroad in 2011-2012 (1324) taken as a percentage of the undergraduate degrees awarded in 2011 (3,636) comes to 36.4% The number of graduate students who studied or conducted research abroad in 2011-2012 (598) taken as a percentage of all the graduate and professional degrees awarded in 2011 (2,551) was 23.4%.

Participation of non-U.Va. Students on U.Va. Study abroad program: In addition to the numbers reported above, in 2011-2012, UVA study abroad programs welcomed 161 non-UVA students from across the country (Fall—22; January - 1; Spring—33; and Summer—103).

II. UNDEGRADUATE EDUCATION ABROAD PROGRAM PARTICIPATION TRENDS A. General Demographics Gender: It has been a repeating trend that female students are more likely to participate in study abroad, both here at U.Va. and in national trends. 69.8% of undergraduates who engaged in education abroad were female, 30.2% were male. This gap is much larger than is the gap between female and male students in the general undergraduate population at U.Va., where the split is 55%/45%. It is also slightly larger than the national average of 63.5% female – 36.5% male ratio reported by the Institute of International Education in the 2010 Open Doors Report*.

Race/Ethnicity: 26.9% of UVa students, who participated in education abroad, identified their ethnic background as other than Caucasian, which exceeds the national average of 21.3%. In particular, students of Asian and African-American origins engaged in education abroad opportunities in numbers higher than national levels. UVa students, who identified as Asian or Hawaiian Pacific (11.9%), participated in education abroad at a rate 44% higher than the national average participation among Asian-Pacific Islanders (7.9%). UVa rate of participation of African-American students (5.8%) exceeded the national average (4.7%) by 23%.

NOTE: This data analysis may not be entirely accurate, since 8.2% of all students had no race/ethnicity indicated (or that their race was not specified), while 5.4% of students identified themselves as multiracial in their SIS record.

Domicile: 59.4% of the undergraduate students who participated in education abroad were Virginia residents; 40.6% were out-of-state students. This proportion of out-of-state students on study abroad is higher than in the general undergraduate population (69.4% VA/30.6% Non-VA in Facts at a Glance, Current Enrollment www.virginia.edu). These percentages show a slight shift from the previous year, but remain relatively stable over time.

B. Academic Level The majority (77%) of undergraduate students, who engaged in education abroad, did so during their 2nd and 3rd years at UVA. Nevertheless, there has an increase in both 1st Years and 4th Years studying abroad. The rather noticeable (34%) increase in 1st years’ participation would have come from J-term or summer programs, since 1st years cannot study abroad for a semester. More detailed data analysis will be needed if the trend continues.

The College of Arts and Sciences with 9.2% participation rate (out of10,342 students enrolled) showed a slight increase for the second year in a row.

The graph above may provide the most accurate comparison of student participation among the schools. It shows student participation in education abroad in 2011-2012 taken as a percentage of the number of undergraduate degrees conferred by each school in 2011. Admittedly, most of the students who studied abroad in 2011-2012 did not graduate in 2011, but since the method is applied consistently across the board, we believe the resultant comparative data provides a valuable insight. The clear leader in sending the largest proportion of its undergraduate students abroad is the School of Architecture (59%) followed by the School of Education undergraduate programs(39.4%), and the College of Arts and Sciences (37.7%).

The graph above illustrates participation in education abroad by students with different majors. In is important to note that the data does not reflect the actual coursework done abroad and whether or not this coursework was majorrelated. It is evident that students majoring in Humanities and Social Sciences study abroad in larger numbers than students in Sciences (except for Biology and Environmental Science). It is also worth noting that almost 20% of students going abroad do so prior to declaring a major.
