Our 61-year-old program takes a global comparative approach to study abroad and deliberately introduces students to 10 or more countries across three continents. It exposes them to places, people, cultures and issues that only a small fraction of U.S. students ever experience.  \nWe are proud of our program and our safety record. The services and support we provide to students ensure they have both a challenging and safe, up-close and expansive, semester aboard the MV World Odyssey and in our ports of call.  \nThis document is intended to provide a high-level overview of our program and outline our preparations for the Spring 2026, Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 voyages of Semester at Sea, which will be our 137th, 138th and 139th.  \nThis document includes: itinerary overviews, how our itineraries are built and managed, safety and security planning and services, port-of-call preparations, our academic program and partnership and more.  \nThank you for all you do to support your students and international education. We’re proud to work with and alongside you!  \nSincerely,  \nScott Marshall, President and CEO of the Institute for Shipboard Education Laura Stroh minger, Chief Program Officer and Vice President of Student Affairs Amanda Davidson, Director of Student Affairs  \nSara Arlin, Vice President of Academic Affairs  \nFabiola Ehlers-Zavala, Senior Academic Officer and CSU Professor of English Jason Hughes, Vice President of Marketing and Recruitment  \nAmy Lepp, Director of Enrollment and University Relations  \nBruce Middleton, Vice President of Operations and Risk Management  \nMission, Strategic Priorities & Learning Outcomes  \nSemester at Sea takes 500+ students each fall and spring to 10 or more countries on three continents. Our independent 501(c)3 nonprofit is registered in Delaware and headquartered at Colorado State University, our academic home since 2016. (More on CSU is included below.)  \nOur mission is to launch “journeys of discovery that spark bold solutions to global challenges ” Semester at Sea teaches students how to interact with a wide range of cultures and people from varied backgrounds, belief systems and more. Our program ultimately helps students become global citizens who are prepared and motivated to take on the world’s most pressing issues.  \nOur four strategic priorities align with this mission and extend it. These aspirations challenge us to:  \n● make our program accessible to all students who wish to participate  \n● to achieve carbon-neutral operations  \n● to cultivate rich learning communities among our students and alumni  \n● and to make our program better known.  \nIn 2023, we updated our Voyage Learning Outcomes, which reinforce and extend these priorities.  \nVoyage Overview: SP26, FA26 & SP27  \nThe Spring 2026 Voyage will take students to 10 countries across Asia, Africa, and Europe. It will embark from Bangkok, Thailand, on January 5, 2026, and then sail to Vietnam, Malaysia, India, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Morocco, and Spain. Voyagers will disembark on April 20, 2026 in Bremerhaven, Germany. The full itinerary, including diversionary ports, is available on the Semester at Sea website.  \nThe Fall 2026 Voyage will travel to four continents while calling on ports in Europe, Africa, South America, and Asia. Embarking in IJmuiden, Netherlands on September 9, 2026, and disembarking in Bangkok, Thailand on December 22, 2026, this 138th expedition combines engaging onboard coursework paired with hands-on cultural activities at each port.
