International Programs
Chatham University believes that providing students with a strong global perspective is critical as the world becomes ever more technologically and economically interconnected. Our commitment to internationalizing the campus has an across-the-curriculum approach—providing curricular and co-curricular experiences on campus and abroad and involving all students regardless of major and all faculty regardless of discipline or teaching area.
As the center for Chatham's international activities, the Office of International Programs provides learning opportunities and services that foster cross-cultural awareness, facilitate intercultural communications, and enhance knowledge of world cultures and societies.
The role of the Office is to:
- Provide opportunities for students, faculty, and administrators to study and/or serve abroad
- Create and promote student and faculty international exchanges
- Maintain links with partner institutions abroad
- Administer Chatham Abroad
- Support the recruitment and retention of international students
- Promote Chatham University's international studies programs
- Promote the internationalization of the curriculum
- Assist faculty in their internationalization efforts
- Disseminate study abroad resource materials
- Provide assistance to international students and scholars
- Organize or assist with the organization of the Global Focus program and other co-curricular programs
