Developing an international staff, even through short-term interchanges, can build the relationships and contacts to build an international student presence. Interchanges with foreign institutions will add experience and depth to your resume and energize you professionally. An IILE interchange will immerse you in the culture and practices of professionals such as yourself in another country. You can select up to six preferred IILE member sites which we will contact for you, or you can leave your application open for all IILE members to consider. IILE can put you in touch with member institutions for a study tour of less than four weeks to shadow a colleague in another country or state.
IILE interchanges open the door to interesting, unexplored perspectives for research.
The relationships built with other IILE member institutions during an interchange are enduring and professionally rewarding. Read some of the comments of past interchange participants below. I feel as if I have a second home here and a whole group of new friends. I highly recommend the program to faculty and staff everywhere who want to enjoy a lifetime opportunity of excitement, challenges, changes and enlightenment. My current exchange experience is one of the highlights of my life.
