Juniata’s faculty and staff hold a wealth of international experience.  Before you visit a partner institution or other international site, be sure to look over the International Travel Checklist, and speak with colleagues who have been to your destination.  You can view the Faculty/ Staff International Experiences page, which includes an International Experiences Database, as well as lists of those who have benefited from CIE Partner Site Visits and the IEC Initiatives Fund.

Study Abroad Program Development

Whether you are interested in beginning a short-term or a semester/ year-long program, make sure you submit the New Program Request to the Registrar's office.

A good first step to explore study abroad program development is to begin a short-term program. The following will help get you started:

If you are interested in adding a new semester or year-long program to Juniata's offerings, please consult with the Dean of International Programs to discuss the process.

CIE Partner Site Visits

Juniata’s ability to provide study abroad opportunities to our students even in difficult economic times depends on sustaining the strong bonds we have forged with our international partners.  These ties are best supported through partner site visits by staff and especially faculty members, whose professional relationships with colleagues abroad are the lifeblood of our exchange programs. 

In an ongoing effort to nurture the valuable relationships with Juniata's international exchange partners, and to assist faculty and staff in internationalizing the campus, the Center for International Education (CIE) is pleased to provide logistical and financial support for faculty and staff partner site visits. Early each spring semester, the CIE will plan its staff visits to our exchange partners for the following academic year, and then place a call for proposals in the daily announcements to faculty and staff who might wish to accompany CIE staff.  Please look for these annual announcements from the CIE. As you write your proposal, you might want to consult with those who have taken advantage of the CIE Partner Site Visits in the past.

If you would like support to visit a Juniata exchange site on your own during other travels, please contact the CIE.

For all site visits supported by the CIE, faculty and staff are asked to complete and submit the Program Visit Report.

 

IEC International Initiatives Fund

If you require support for other international initiatives, you may wish to submit a proposal to the International Education Committee.  Each fall, the IEC will place a call for proposals in the daily announcements to support departmental initiatives towards internationalizing the campus. Feel free to consult with those who have taken advantage of the IEC International Initiatives Fund in the past

Other Initiatives

Many other opportunities exist for faculty and staff international initiatives.  If you are interested in a faculty exchange, for example, begin talking with your department head, and take a look at our Juniata exchange programs. Feel free to contact Jenifer Cushman (3181/ <cushmaj>), the Dean of the CIE, for questions about these and other initiatives .
