Global and International engagement is a key focus of the IU School of Education.
Our faculty and students are engaged in international research and scholarship across the globe, and our international academic partnerships with peer institutions around the world are an important means of academic enrichment and exchange.
Our international activities matter because they encourage Hoosiers to become globally aware citizens, build pathways to peace and mutual understanding, promote the power of education to facilitate development, and strengthen IU's position as a leader in international education.
