• NMSU
Internship Programs: NMSU
departments organize internships that allow
students to enroll at NMSU (usually in
Distance Education status) and receive
NMSU graded credit for the supervised work
experience.

• Affiliated
Academic Programs: NMSU also has
several agreements that allow students
to earn
academic and language credit, primarily
in countries or at universities with which
NMSU has been unable to arrange exchanges.
While this opens up additional options
for our students to study abroad, these
programs tend to be the least cost effective
way to study abroad.
