The Center for International Studies and Programs is hosting daily information sessions for students interested in learning how to explore their world and enhance their academic career.
Lydia Kane, a film major who participated in an International Study Abroad Program in Barcelona, Spain, in 2012, stopped for a photo in front of the Sagrada Família church, one of the city’s most popular attractions.
Information sessions will be held throughout fall semester in Snyder Memorial Building Room 1100 on:
• Monday and Tuesday from 11 a.m. to noon;
• Wednesday and Thursday from 3 to 4 p.m.; and
• Friday from noon to 1 p.m.
Students can register online at utoledo.edu/cisp/infosession; walk‐ins are welcome.
“Students will learn about various options that fit their goals and interests,” said Michelle Ploeger, international education specialist. “We also will go over the different programs and provide next steps to get them on their way. Ideally, students will want to plan a year out from when they want to depart.”
Ploeger added, “Students are encouraged to attend a daily Center for International Studies and Programs information session. These sessions will serve as a good starting point where they can learn more.”
The Center for International Studies and Programs supports internationalization efforts at The University of Toledo by creating links among students, faculty, staff, visiting scholars and the community that foster cross-cultural understanding and appreciation. The center encourages global citizenship through innovative educational, cultural and service learning programming and through student and scholar exchanges.
The center is committed to the belief that effective cross-cultural interaction leads to global understanding and ultimately to a more rewarding human experience and to a better, more peaceful world.
