　　美国大学生的留洋热潮

　　This is the VOA Special English Education Report.

　　The number of American students who study in other countries has been growing. The Institute of International Education, in its most recent report, counted more than two hundred twenty-three thousand, a record.

　　A few years ago a commission established by Congress called for a goal of one million a year by two thousand seventeen.

　　The institute says growth in study abroad programs is partly the result of more choices of shorter lengths of study than a full school year.

　　More than half the American students who go abroad study in Europe, though fewer than in the past. Students have shown growing interest in Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.

　　Since two thousand one, New York University has been sending more students abroad than any other campus in the United States. It offers classes in Argentina, China, Ghana and several countries in Europe.
