About Us
At Rollins, our dedication to providing you with a global education is a distinction that is personified by our students and faculty every day. Our focus on the importance of an international perspective began in the 1930s, and has only gotten stronger. Today, Rollins ranks among the top 10 master’s-granting institutions in the country for the number of students who study abroad. And two-thirds of our faculty are (or have been actively) engaged in international pursuits—taking students abroad, conducting overseas research, and teaching international courses. More than 25 faculty from Rollins (representing about 10% of the faculty) have traveled to China to study the Middle Kingdom on College sponsored trips.
