"One Size Does Not Fit All: Sustained Global Commitments for the Small-and Medium-Sized Institution" - AIEA Forum on Internationalization - Jan. 28-29, 2011
The following IHEC Blog post is a copy and paste job from various listserv messages that my colleague Bryan McAllister-Grande from Brandeis University has recently sent around. I am reposting with his permission:
The Association of International Education Administrators and Brandeis University are excited to announce this special campus forum to take place in early 2011:
Save the Date - January 28 - 29, 2011
AN AIEA FORUM ON INTERNATIONALIZATION STRATEGY
Hosted by Brandeis University
Waltham, MA (about 30 minutes outside of Boston)
"One Size Does Not Fit All: Sustained Global Commitments for the Small-and Medium-Sized Institution"
Small research universities and liberal arts colleges face special challenges -- as well as unique opportunities -- for comprehensive internationalization and global partnerships. This day-and-a-half Forum, jointly sponsored by the Association of International Education Administrators (AIEA), will be developed as a focused set of small-group discussions about our "sustained global commitments" -- any kind of coordinated set of overseas-based educational activities, including partnerships, exchanges, study abroad, and internationalization hubs, campuses, programs, or offices.
Full details and Registration will be available in October; this AIEA Forum will be limited to 20-25 participants and geared for institutions serving student populations of 2,000 - 12,000 (undergraduate and graduate). For questions, please contact oga@brandeis.edu or +1 781-736-5642
