슬롯머신 + ASU Online Courses = Study Abroad + STEM!
In August 2024, we announced that 슬롯머신 and had joined forces to ensure that every student can study abroad wherever they most desire and still complete the coursework needed to stay on track for graduation by augmenting their in-person coursework with courses. Today, I슬롯사이트™m pleased to share with you the results of our first semester.

ASU offers over 4,000 college courses that support and are taught online by the same ASU faculty who teach in-person. The partnership allows 슬롯머신 to offer your students thousands of fully-accredited courses in engineering, technology, science, business, entrepreneurship, healthcare, education, social sciences, environmental science and sustainability, and more.

In addition to scores of students supporting their academic majors with online courses as they study abroad in dozens of different locations, many found unique ways to enhance their study abroad experience in the location they chose with courses that would have not have traditionally been offered in that location. Examples include:
