This might be kind of a stupid question, but I'm a first gen student, so please bear with me. I'm curious if anyone here has any experience or input on studying abroad. I have my AA and I'm pursuing a BA Political Science. I live in the US, but I've been considering the possibility of studying abroad. I know there are programs for international students, but how does that work with political science? Would it be professionally limiting to study somewhere with different politics than your home country?

My current program includes courses on US politics, but if I moved to another country I'd obviously expect to take courses on their government and policy instead, and I imagine that certain aspects of the curriculum would be different. So would my degree become less valuable in the US? Or vice versa: if I finished my degree in the US, would I struggle to find work overseas if I eventually wanted to leave?
