Welcome to the Traveling Terps website, your place for international-related events and news in College Park and wherever UM Terps may roam!
Traveling Terps is a student organization at the University of Maryland with the goal of uniting people with interests in traveling and international affairs. Whether you’re an abroad alumnus, an international student, an exchange student, a current study abroad student, or a student considering traveling abroad, this site will give you information about all kinds of events with the purpose of uniting students with international interests.
In the past, we’ve talked to students considering studying abroad at the Study Abroad Fair, participated in Maryland Day and the First Look Fair, and hosted photography contests! This listserv will keep you up to date on those opportunities, as well as other events and upcoming meetings. Take a look around the site to find information and traveling resources and to get involved with our group. If you have any more questions, feel free to email us at travelingterps@gmail.com. We hope to see you at the next Traveling Terps meeting!
