International Education Week is for everybody! Let's bring the world to UMBC!
The International Education Week committee is encouraging all areas of campus to get involved in IEW 2020. We want to celebrate our international community, support international initiatives on campus, and share international experiences with domestic students and community they might not otherwise be exposed to. 

As you begin thinking about IEW, consider the following: 
  • With a virtual event, you can also reach a wider audience. As you propose an event you will be able to indicate which audiences you would like to target. This could be faculty, staff, current students, prospective students (domestic and international) and/or the wider UMBC community. 
  • Events come in a variety of forms, including virtual activities, presentations, lectures and more. Interested in hosting, but not sure how to get started? The IEW committee is here to help you plan next steps. 
As always, if you have any questions, please contact the committee at iew@umbc.edu. We look forward to receiving your proposals. Lets bring the world to UMBC!

UMBC International Education Services (IES) and the English Language Institute (ELI) have begun planning International Education Week 2020! IEW is a joint initiative between the US Department of State and the Department of Education hosted by universities annually in mid-November. It’s an opportunity to highlight international initiatives on campus, celebrate the international student population, and expose domestic students to international experiences they would not otherwise know. 

 

 

 

What’s Next?

 

Planning Committee Search:

IES and the ELI are looking to form a planning committee for International Education Week, and we would like a member(s) of your department to be a part of it. This committee will organize and promote UMBC’s International Education Week. They will ensure the week creates a fun, engaging, and educational week of programming for all members of the UMBC community. Currently, the committee meets biweekly and is in the early stages of the planning process

Event Proposal Submissions:

If no member of your department is able to join the planning committee, we are still strongly encouraging all departments across campus to get involved by hosting a virtual event, for students (current and prospective), staff, faculty and/or the wider UMBC community during IEW. A separate email will be sent at that time, with additional information on all things planning IEW Proposals and Events 

 

 

IEW also supports and helps to further promote the university-wide effort towards internationalization. For further information regarding International Education Week contact us at iew@umbc.edu. Additionally, you may visit the official website at https://iew.state.gov/ and see the attached infographic. 

 

We hope you're inspired and energized to bring the world to UMBC!
