Forwarding an invitation from The Center for Global Engagement to celebrate International Education Week (IEW), November 16-20, 2026.

Dear Colleagues,

The Center for Global Engagement is excited to invite you and your students to celebrate International Education Week (IEW), November 16–20, 2026!

International Education Week is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education that celebrates international education and intercultural exchange.

Throughout the week, UMBC will host a variety of activities and events that celebrate our international community, highlight global perspectives, and create opportunities to connect and share intercultural experiences. We hope you and your students will join us!

Sign up for our events here:   https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/iew/events
An event flyer is attached below, and we hope you'll share it with your students and colleagues. Please feel free to print and display it in your departments.

We'd also be happy to provide a larger IEW poster for your office. Just let us know if you'd like one!

Thank you for helping us spread the word. We look forward to celebrating with you and your students!

Best,
