International Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and intercultural exchange worldwide. IEW aims to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences.
URI’s International Education Week Planning Committee invites degree-granting colleges, departments, centers, and student organizations to submit event proposals celebrating international education opportunities and showcasing URI’s efforts in meeting the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
IEW is a national celebration initiated by the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education. This year, IEW will showcase global research, promote study-away opportunities, foster diversity and inclusion, and support internationalization efforts.
If you are interested in hosting an event during IEW, please submit your event information by Sunday, October 1, 2023.
For further information, contact Shelley O’Connor (swoconnor@uri.edu), Chair of the IEW Committee.
