SOE International Committee
The School of Education is committed to advancing access to life’s opportunities by providing (a) transformative educational experiences; (b) innovation and research and bridging discovery with teaching and practice; (c) the promotion of equity, diversity, and inclusion; and (d) events and activities fostering an engaged and collaborative community.
The SOE International Committee strives to:
- Share resources for internationalization: The committee strives to enhance the awareness of existing international, national, regional and local resources for internationalization among SOE faculty, staff and students.
- Foster a welcoming and supportive environment for SOE international students, visitors, and scholars: The committee provides support and network opportunities for SOE international students, visitors, and scholars; and offers education and awareness regarding international access, equity, and support issues.
- Promote SOE international collaborative opportunities: The committee offers resources and support for SOE faculty, staff, and students who are interested in leading and/or participating in study-abroad programs, exchange programs, and other international collaborative teaching, research, and service opportunities.
The SOE International committee serves as an advisory group to the Dean. It is comprised of faculty, staff, and students from the School of Education as well as key persons from the University. We are always looking to incorporate new members with global ideas to join the SOE Global committee. If you are interested in joining, please email us at soeglobal@uncg.edu.
