How do I obtain IR concentration credit for courses taken abroad?
Obtaining concentration credit for courses taken during your junior year abroad is a two-step process requiring preliminary approval of your course selection before you go and final approval when you return to Brown with your coursework. All students, including those on Brown-run programs, must obtain formal concentration approval. If you fail to obtain formal concentration approval, you will not be able to count your study abroad toward the IR concentration and will instead have to fulfill concentration requirements with courses taken at Brown.
