Description

Internationalization is one of the profound and transformational changes occurring in contemporary colleges and universities. Institution-wide commitment is needed if all students are to achieve learning outcomes with international and intercultural content. This requires administrative leaders, staff and faculty to have a comprehensive understanding of internationalization, along with well-articulated skills, knowledge and dispositions to improve institutional capacity and to increase student learning. To meet this need, the Higher Education Administration and Student Personnel program offers a professional certificate program in the Internationalization of Higher Education, designed to strengthen students’ skills for working in college and university settings. The 15-credit hour certificate, which includes an internship experience, can be completed as a stand-alone program or as a complement to another degree program.
