SHARE WITH STUDENTS: International Education Week November 16th – 20th

International Education Week (IEW) is a national week promoted by the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Education that celebrates the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. Ever year during IEW institutions are encouraged to host events for their campuses to learn about ways they can engage in international opportunities.  This year, International Education Week will be celebrated from November 16th – 20th.  The Study Abroad Office will be hosting a couple of events and we have pulled together a few events offered by our partners that may be of interest to students, faculty, and staff.  We have prepared a media kit which you can access here for details about all events taking place. We invite you to help spread the word using the included flyer and social media graphics.

Please share out the event with yours students as well as interested colleagues. We appreciate your support!  The following sessions are focused on awareness building and getting started to make international engagement opportunities a part of your undergraduate or graduate experience.
