International Education

Building a Global Community of Scholars and Researchers

The ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø is a truly global community of students, scholars and researchers. Although our institutions are firmly rooted in ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø, their reach has no boundaries. This year, ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø universities welcomed about 9,500 international students to their campuses, while also providing thousands of U.S.-based students and faculty members with opportunities to engage in scholarship and research in every corner of the globe. Global learning is also taking place at “home” through virtual global classrooms linking our students with students around the world. Through both curricular and extracurricular learning opportunities, ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø students encounter different cultures and new perspectives, build understanding, and grow as global citizens who are inspired to better their world.

Celebrating International Education Week

International Education Week is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education, recognizing the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. During this celebration, ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø institutions present programs that highlight the unique contributions of our international students and that build awareness of global learning and exchange opportunities.


Global Engagement Advisory Council

To advance the ϡȱÁÔÆæÍøâ€™s commitment to international education, the ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø has established a Global Engagement Advisory Council, which includes representatives of ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø institutions who are engaged with international students and global learning and exchange programs. This council advises ϡȱÁÔÆæÍø leaders on opportunities to expand and invigorate international education across the system.
