The GEARE Ambassadors Team
The GEARE Ambassadors is a student-run organization whose goal is to help students plan for their GEARE experiences abroad and build the GEARE student community through social, professional, and preparatory events. If you're interested in joining the GEARE Ambassadors or looking for a student perspective on the program, contact us at exec.geare@gmail.com.

The Study Abroad Office
Because the GEARE program incorporates a study abroad session into its requirements, many of your questions may be able to be answered by the study abroad office itself. Things like insurance, visas, and anticipated timelines can all be referred through them. Contact the office at studyabroad@purdue.edu.

Leighton Buntain - GEARE Manager
Leighton Buntain is your go-to for anything GEARE. Have questions on how GEARE might fit into your major or career plan, questions about your application, or anything else not covered on the website? Leighton is the person to ask. Contact him at buntain@purdue.edu.

Your Academic Advisor
Just like all things Purdue, your academic advisor is a great resource! If your advisor doesn't have the answers you need, many departments have an advisor who works specifically with students who plan to study abroad. Your advising department can help you with degree planning, what classes you'll be able to take abroad, and more. Contact them using Boilerconnect or the emails on the department website.
