International Faculty Development Program

"I tell presidents, if they have any money at all for internationalization, faculty development is the place to put it." - Madeleine F. Green

Faculty Development Fellowship

The International Faculty Development Fellowship Program is designed to assist Northeastern State University in creating a more global and diverse campus by instituting a program of international theme-based seminars for NSU faculty. 

The fellowship program serves to enlarge the cohort of faculty engaged in international dialogue, to further internationalize the NSU curricula, to increase the international awareness and interest of undergraduate students through exposure to faculty with overseas knowledge and experience, to expose faculty to international research efforts and grant opportunities, to re-examine and view one’s discipline within an international context, to introduce faculty members to scholarly communities abroad, to enable faculty to become familiar with best-practice approaches to internationalization and to increase the NSU profile both regionally and internationally.

This program is conducted by the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) for NSU, and it is anticipated that 4-5 faculty members will receive fellowships to participate in the summer 2011 program.

The deadline for applications is December 2, 2011.

CIEE has information online for the Summer 2012 details including seminar details, topics and host countries
