Get out of the classroom and into the world.
What makes our students citizens of the world? It’s not just USC Marshall’s groundbreaking international programs or LA’s status as a global city and gateway to the Pacific Rim. It’s the spirit of collaboration, openness, curiosity, and adventure that prevails here. Ultimately, that’s what moves our students forward, beyond boundaries: as innovators, as entrepreneurs, as leaders, and as human beings.
