International Education Week

International Education Week is an annual celebration of international education and cultural exchange. Created in 2000 through a memorandum issued by President Bill Clinton, IEW recognizes the importance of global exchange—whether it is encouraging students in the U.S. to study abroad or welcoming international students and scholars on U.S. campuses. Colleges and universities throughout the U.S. host IEW in mid-November each year with an array of programming that highlights the broad impact of international education on each campus.  Read More

International Education Week, a joint initiative of the U.S. Departments of Education and State celebrating international education, will be Nov. 18–22. Each year, campuses across the U.S. mark IEW through programming and events that highlight the importance of international education and exchange. The event type is flexible, but each event should be related to international education, international/cultural exchange, and/or living in a global environment. Proposals submitted by student organizations are especially encouraged.   Read More
