This paper discusses the development of a survey administered to undergraduate Industrial Engineering at the University of Arkansas to determine why more students do not study abroad. The survey examines why students choose not to study abroad, funding levels needed to study abroad, and where students want to study abroad. Results from this survey indicate that students are highly interested in studying abroad, but that the primary reason that they do not engage in this experience is a shortage of finances. Strategies are discussed to raise the level of participation in study abroad by Industrial Engineering students.
