Welcome to the Office of International Programs (OIP). In support of the University’s commitment to diversity, cultural awareness, and the development of students to function effectively in a global society, it is our goal to be recognized as the central repository for the University’s international initiative.
The Office of International Programs coordinates the approved University international programs and activities. These programs and activities include academic study, research, internships, cultural enrichment, and service-learning. The three specific types of academic study abroad programs approved by the University are:
(1) Faculty-led or proprietary programs
(2) Direct enrollment and exchanges with foreign institutions
(3) Third party providers
The duration of the programs may range from one week to an academic year. Regardless of duration, each program type undergoes the same review and approval processes to ensure academic rigor and integrity, and relevance to both the university’s mission and the strategic goals of the academic departments.
