The LSATravel office offers pre-departure health & safety workshops for LSA faculty leading students abroad on CGIS and non-CGIS programs. In addition, LSA students are encouraged to attend our specialized LSATravel pre-departure orientation.

Orientations & Drop-In Hours

LSA faculty leading students abroad on CGIS and non-CGIS programs in the term prior to summer travel can particpate in workshops in the months leading up to their departure. Faculty orientations are currently suspended due to the pandemic.

LSA students traveling abroad in the spring / summer months are invited to attend optional, drop-in health & safety sessions during March and April. These orientations will cover topics like GeoBlue insurance, on-site safety, registering travel, staying healthy, and general tips to improve student experiences.

This is especially recommended for students traveling solo or in small groups, as you are able to talk about preparations with other students and ask questions directly to health and safety staff about any concerns you might have in a small group setting.

Student Orientation Dates for Winter 2021

LSATravel will be hosting three live webinar sessions for students in Winter 2021. We also intend to record one of these sessions to put online for students to view. Sign up for any of the below orientations on Sessions. There will be a particular focus on how the pandemic has impacted travel requirements and situations on the ground.

Friday, March 19, 2-3 p.m.

Tuesday, March 30, 3-4 p.m.

Friday, April 16, 11 a.m.-12 p.m.

Student Drop-In Advising for Winter 2021

Drop-in online open advising hours are scheduled for each Wednesday from 2-3 p.m. from March 24 to April 28. Attend by going to our Zoom link at  https://umich.zoom.us/j/94985979802 (Only UM authorized users may access).
