The university has been actively promoting intercultural understanding in its education, carrying out various exchange programs via the University's network of 18 universities in eight countries around the world.These programs include programs focusing mainly on language training and exposure to cultural diversity, longer overseas stays for studies, and overseas internships enabling students to gain working experience in an international environment, thereby learning intercultural sensibility and practical skills. For their unique content, not found in other universities' overseas programs, OGU's internships are drawing much attention.

Famous quotes containing the word exchange:
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
