Studying abroad in Croatia allows students to learn beyond the classroom and develop skills to be successful in a rapidly changing global society. By participating in organized activities, students get immersed in local culture, people, and traditional cuisine that are beyond extraordinary. Summer programs have been specifically designed to help students enjoy unforgettable study abroad opportunities, all while reaching their academic goals.

RIT Croatia creates, organizes, and runs study abroad programs in cooperation with global campuses and other universities. After two years during the pandemic without any study abroad students, this academic year RIT Croatia has seen an increase of interest in study abroad programs from both its students and from RIT global campuses students

Three programs are running actively this summer with a total of 37 students coming mostly from the main campus in Rochester. The shortest program is the Ecology of Dalmatian Coast and the Roots to Croatian Wine Tradition, where students are taking the course Wines of the World and the Ecology of Dalmatian Coast for three weeks at the beautiful Dubrovnik campus. Followed by a week-long sailing trip that combines the knowledge from the classroom with fieldwork.

Zagreb campus hosts a very popular Summer Psychology program, combining Positive and Abnormal psychology courses for five weeks and a week-long travel tour to Vienna and Munich.

The newest program, running for the first time this year, is the Summer Business administration minor that spans throughout the whole summer, aimed at STEM students who want to complete a minor in Business Administration. All three programs are unique and students from different majors see the academic and social benefits of traveling abroad.

When asked about his experience in Dubrovnik, Joe Giannattasio, an RIT student from New Jersey said:

There are a lot of treasures memories Myren Bobryk-Ozaki will bring home to the US, but most notable are the new friendships they made along the way:

RIT Croatia (formerly known as ACMT) has been delivering top American degree programs in Croatia since 1997. With its two campuses, in Dubrovnik and Zagreb, this is the only US college in the country and it is the only institution for higher education granting two diplomas to its students - an American diploma, awarded by RIT, and a Croatian diploma, awarded by RIT Croatia. RIT Croatia graduates work all over the world - from the EU countries to Australia and the US, but also exotic locations such as Curacao. International students come from all over the world but most of them come from the U.S. Some come from the main campus from Rochester, but a lot of Americans come from Croatian Diaspora communities in cities such as San Jose, San Pedro, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, New York, Toronto, Mississauga, Cleveland, and many more.
