- to serve as a resource to the international student community;
- to promote opportunities for local/domestic students to enrich their academic experience through participation in study abroad and study away programs;
- and to foster appreciation for global engagement and serve as a resource to the entire University community through international and intercultural programming.
The Center for International Education, Study Abroad & Study Away reflects the University’s mission to promote academic rigor and the grounding of students in objective truth, integrity and excellence by facilitating active global/glocal citizenship, and to form students for vocations in church, family and world by deepening their global vision and perspective.
