My study abroad experience with Dr. Ty in December of 2022 was one of the best experiences of my life. Not only did I get the chance to travel with a fun group of students and one of the best professors on campus, but I also got the unique opportunity to immerse myself in the culture of Athens, Greece. From the amazing food, to the interesting exhibits and class time and even the tour guides from WorldStrides who turned into special friends, it was an experience I will never forget. Everyone on campus should study abroad with Dr. Ty before they graduate!

If you’re looking for an opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture and learn about its personal history, study abroad is for you. The knowledge I’ve gained and the connections I’ve made both at Mississippi State and across the globe have impacted me tremendously. This once in a lifetime experience will truly change your lens of the world.

During the summer of 2023, I had the incredible opportunity to study psychology in Austria, Germany, and the Czech Republic under the guidance of Dr. Ty. Additionally, in the spring of 2022, I embarked on another journey to study abroad in Spain, again led by Dr. Ty. These experiences were nothing short of transformative, opening my eyes to new perspectives and horizons I never thought possible. Dr. Ty's commitment to our academic growth played a pivotal role in shaping these unforgettable experiences. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone seeking both personal and intellectual transformations.

I have always wanted to study abroad, so when I found out Dr. Ty was going to Greece in December of 2022, I knew I had to go. The experience was absolutely amazing, especially witnessing the Parthenon and Corinth in person, and also swimming in Lake Vouliagmeni. And, you can never forget about the food. WOW. Dr. Ty was a huge part of my college experience, and I am so thankful to have gotten to go on this trip with him and our group before I graduated from Mississippi State in May of 2023.

Going on study abroad with Dr. Ty was one of the best things I ever did in college. I became bonded with people I never knew but now call best friends and got to experience so many incredible moments I’ll tell for the rest of my life. The way Dr. Ty genuinely cares for his students and takes every opportunity to make the trip as meaningful as possible is truly something so special. There’s no one better to travel abroad with than Dr. Ty, and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Studying abroad with Dr. Ty was one of the best experiences of my life. In Greece, we learned about the ancient philosophers and their ties to the modern world. Between the food, friendships made, and sights seen, traveling with Dr. Ty was an unforgettable experience! #travelwithTy

Choosing to #TravelWithTy was the best decision I ever made. I truly had the best week of my life in Sevilla. I find myself thinking about the trip all the time. I made new friends that I now talk to everyday. I am forever bonded to my study abroad group, Ty, and the city of Sevilla. NO8DO.

My trip to Vienna and Prague with Dr. Ty was transformative. I decided it was time to cross traveling abroad off of my bucket list and there is no group I would have rather experienced world travel with for the first time than the group Dr. Ty takes! I learned so much about the world, myself, and my peers. I got to go abroad as Miss Mississippi State University and two weeks later I got to talk about my experiences abroad in my Miss Mississippi interview! I ended up being blessed with the opportunity to serve as Miss Mississippi 2022 and share all about my experiences with individuals across the state and the nation. Traveling with Dr. Ty will make you a well-rounded individual with new memories that will last a lifetime. Once you study abroad with Dr. Ty, you will not want to stop!

I went to Vienna, Prague, Salzburg, and Leipzig with Dr. Ty and it is an experience that I'll cherish for the rest of my life! It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn about psychology right where it all began. The views and food were all so incredible, but nothing compares to the friendships that are made while on the Best.Trip.Ever.

I went to Vienna and Prague with Dr. Ty my junior year of college, and it was truly one of the best experiences of my life. I will never forget the once in a lifetime memories, activities, lessons, and friendships from this trip. I have countless people who tell me that not studying abroad is their biggest regret of college. Travel with Ty! You won’t regret it!!

The trip to Sevilla was a learning experience, a cultural experience, and most of all a life-changing experience. Dr. Ty’s program allows you to see into different aspects of education in Spain, as well as societal implications that affect such. It is a trip I will never forget, that truly opened my eyes to the most beautiful and rich place in Europe! Sevilla 4eva
