The Internationalization Initiative seeks to connect the PSU campus community with the global community through increased involvement and understanding. The Initiative accomplishes this through:

  • curricular integration
  • travel abroad opportunities
  • increased international presence on campus
  • increased engagement with others, both nearby and around the world
  • formation of the Internationalization Council

The Office of International Affairs the President’s Office and the Provost’s Office work closely with the Internationalization Initiative to accomplish its goals. Gil Latz, Vice Provost of International Affairs, facilitates the Internationalization Initiative.

Internationalization Council History

The Internationalization Council was formed in 2002 for the purpose of revising and refining the goals of the Internationalization Initiative. The Council was reorganized as an Internationalization Council, appointed by the Provost, in 2008. In the period since 2002, and with input from the campus community, the Council created the Internationalization Action Plan to further the Internationalization Initiative.
