Problem Statements

1. Clemson University students know that the university offers the study abroad option, but they do not know how to go about taking advantage of this option. The university encourages students to study abroad, citing it to be a good experience for young people. There is a large amount of seemingly perplexing information that students need to be familiar with in order to make an informed decision regarding studying abroad. I will inform them about all aspects of the study abroad process by writing a pamphlet explaining the program in an easy-to-understand format. The pamphlet attempt to answer the majority of the students' questions regarding studying abroad.

2. Many Clemson students would like the study abroad program to be easily accessible and easy to understand. Students are busy, and do not have a large bracket of time to spend learning about the study abroad program. Currently, the study abroad program is not entirely successful at informing students of the many study abroad options. In order to make it more likely for students to take advantage of the program, I will better the situation by condensing all the information students need to consider in an easy to understand, to the point pamphlet discussing all aspects of the study abroad program.

3. Clemson students considering studying abroad are facing a somewhat overwhelming process. The current brochures and webpage do not answer all of their questions regarding the program. Students do not have enough free time to research all aspects of the program, leaving them wondering about such items such as financial aid and fulfilling their major's requirements. This situation results in many students who would love to study abroad not attempting and considering the option. I will make the decision to study abroad easier to understand by writing an easy to read pamphlet condensing vital information and necessary elements in a format that will help students choose how to take advantage of this option.
