In addition, ISP is responsible for the Annual Conference, a major annual event for professionals in international educational exchange and for the publication of the Journal of Studies in International Educational Exchange, which provides a forum for noteworthy scholarship and provocative thinking about efforts to provide quality international educational exchange programs. For a student, visiting this web site can be an important first step in embarking on an educational venture that will have a significant impact on the rest of one's life. For most students who take part of their college education overseas, the experience abroad is important in shaping a world view, establishing a career, and constructing an individual relationship with society.
Council offers study abroad opportunities of two basic types.
Our Study Centers provide curricula specifically designed with the American undergraduate in mind, and offer student services and activities which help U.S. undergraduates derive maximum benefit from the experience. Direct Enrollment , on the other hand, offers an opportunity for a more independent-minded student to experience an overseas university on its own terms. Education Administrators are welcome to participate in the variety of Faculty Programs Council has available. For faculty and administrators, Council offers International Faculty Development Seminars, which are 7-16 day, intensive overseas experiences designed to explore international issues while allowing participants to exchange views with academic peers in other countries. The seminars provide an opportunity to focus on global issues and regions that are shaping the course of world events.
