Develop summer workshops and certificate programs. Many prospective international students are looking not for degrees but for specialized training. Such workshops would be priced to recover their costs or perhaps to make a modest profit. Offer degrees in cooperation with universities abroad. The idea expands traditional student exchanges and other excellent programs now offered through Carleton International.
Several arrangements are possible.
One would simply provide better coordination of academic credits to allow international students to study at home a few years before attending Carleton. Another would send current or retired Carleton professors abroad to offer our courses in the classrooms of cooperating universities. A third would bring the students here for summer academic programs. All would allow the students to save money on travel and living expenses while providing at least some exposure to Carleton education. Provide education financing.
