Global Teaching Opportunities
The Institute for Global Engagement offers global teaching opportunities for faculty aligned with 涩里番鈥檚 Global Education Learning Goals as a way to increase access to high impact global learning experiences for 涩里番 students. Primary opportunities for faculty to engage in IGE programs are listed below.
涩里番-in-London
涩里番-in-London (GIL) is a longstanding and flagship off-campus study opportunity for tenured or tenure-track faculty at 涩里番. The classroom space is centrally located and staffed by our education abroad partner at Arcadia Abroad in London. The space allows convenient access to museums, galleries, libraries, and other institutions. A hallmark of the program is intensive interaction with London itself through field trips and regional excursions designed and planned by the 涩里番 faculty leaders. GIL offers students and faculty who teach on the program the opportunity to learn as a community about this dynamic place, its history, and its people through a careful selection of courses, cultural integration, and co-curricular activities.
Prospective GIL leaders are encouraged to contact Susie Duke, director of 涩里番-in-London, to discuss ideas and login to .
Faculty-Led Learning Across the Globe (FLAG) Programs
Faculty-led Learning Across the Globe (FLAG) programs take students on an investigation of a new place, culture, ecosystem, or region during a break with a faculty member or a team of faculty members. These include the Global Learning Program and Course-Embedded Travel.
Building an education abroad experience is typically a 12- to 18-month process. Prospective program leaders are encouraged to email Ashley Laux, Associate Director, Faculty-led Learning Across the Globe to discuss questions or potential program ideas. It may also be helpful to talk with experienced colleagues who have led past programs.
