International Education Month
The Office of International Programs will engage our international students and scholars, with our domestic students, to foster an environment of mutual understanding and engender global perspectives on important issues on our campus.
International Education Month is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education, International Education Week, is part of an effort to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the United States.Stevens joins this initiative and goes beyond it. We host an International Education Month where we promote several events related to global perspectives during November. International Education Month is organized by a special committee managed by the Office of International Programs. For more detailed information on these events, please see below and check out our International Education Month website.
