The Halliburton Engineering Global Programs Office is committed to the health and safety of all our students traveling abroad. We work in close partnership with the Texas A&M University Education Abroad Office and the Texas A&M Risk and Compliance Office to ensure that our students are safe when studying in international locations. We work with fully vetted and insured international travel providers that we hope will minimize any threats to the safety of all students overseas.
Every engineering student traveling for one of our global opportunities is required to attend mandatory pre-departure orientations. These meetings include health and safety abroad information. Please ask your student about the information received during the orientation sessions. All students are enrolled in mandatory health insurance, which can be accessed anywhere in the world for the duration of the program.
Additionally, the Texas A&M University Education Abroad Office maintains an emergency cell phone that you or your student can call should any emergency arise while the student is overseas. An Education Abroad staff member is on-call with the emergency cell phone 24/7 throughout the year and can be reached by calling 1-979-255-6103. You can also email abroademergency@tamu.edu.
