Many faculty are searching for opportunities to participate in study abroad or bring foreign students to the U.S., all in an effort to acquire a greater international perspective. There are several models for faculty participation in international education, including the university run model (run completely by a university with students from only that university), the 3rd party provider model (companies that provide a range of services), host university model (where faculty serve as guests who lecture or do program review), exchange programs and the Fulbright Scholar model and short-term summer multimedia programs (foreign students at a U.S. university). These models vary greatly as to faculty involvement, expectations and workload. Panelists have participated in these models and will discuss how to get involved, how to work with your university, how these programs function, and the pros and cons of each model.
