The Semester In program offers undergraduate Northeastern students an unparalleled opportunity to take a semester’s worth of classes at any of Northeastern’s global campuses: Oakland, Portland, Seattle, Silicon Valley, London, Ireland, Greece, and starting in 2026, Manhattan! This program provides a semester-long immersive experience where undergraduate students engage in industry site-visits, alumni and networking events, guest lectures, and opportunities for co-op in the region, all while taking Northeastern courses.

Participants immerse themselves not only in academic studies, but also in the vibrant cultures and lively professional scenes of these bustling global cities.
