About
Our Location
In Riva San Vitale in southern Switzerland, the Steger Center for International Scholarship serves as Virginia Tech’s European center. In the historic Villa Maderni students are immersed in history, culture, and community.
What We Do
Home to several study abroad programs for undergraduate and graduate students, the Steger Center also offers opportunities for faculty and staff members to develop semester-long and short-term programs.
We also serve as the European base for the Center for European Union, Transatlantic, and Trans-European Space Studies, a Jean Monnet Center for Excellence, and support its research and pedagogical aims.
Finally, the Steger Center hosts international conferences on behalf of Virginia Tech and interested faculty members.
