Living and studying in another country and culture may present special safety and security challenges. All Krannert study abroad programs have emergency protocols that are covered in the orientation sessions provided at the start of the in-country stay. Students are strongly encouraged to follow the guidelines given during those sessions. Program fees include the cost of mandatory emergency insurance coverage for all Krannert students.
