Salzburg College was founded as a study abroad program for Illinois State University and Northern Illinois University by Dr. Ina Stegen in 1970 and started out with a classical European Studies Program of liberal arts courses.
In 1975 a Photography and Studio Art program was added to the existing courses.
Around 1985 two new areas of study - Business and Communication - expanded the curriculum. Soon thereafter, international internships were introduced to allow an even greater immersion into Austrian-European culture.
2013 marked a new milestone for Salzburg College with the decision to collaborate with the Intercultural College of the University of Salzburg in offering its first degree programs in the field of Intercultural Studies.
In 2018 the first A.A. and B.S. programs commenced on site in Salzburg.
I feel I have gained a lot of knowledge in my German and in my voice training. I feel very prepared for graduate school.
