DESCRIPTION:The Einaudi Center\, in collaboration with Cornell Abroad\, the
  Center for Teaching Excellence\, the Center for Engaged Learning + Resear
 ch\, and the Office of Academic Diversity Initiatives (OADI)\, is organizi
 ng a one-day internationalization symposium on May 13\, 2015 in G10 Biotec
 hnology entitled “Integration of International Experience into the Curri
 culum.” This symposium—addressed to faculty\, staff\, and administrati
 ve leaders in departments\, colleges\, and the university—provides a uni
 que opportunity to create awareness\; improve our collective thinking\; re
 view models and approaches\; share ideas and learn from each other\; ident
 ify challenges\, issues\, and resource needs\; and develop recommendations
 .\n\nAt Cornell new and expanding global programs—such as international 
 internships\, service learning programs\, and innovative study abroad cour
 ses—have been aimed at advancing the president's call to enhance Cornell
 's excellence in international studies and global engagement by having “
 meaningful international experiences.” Cornell’s pledge to the nationa
 l “Generation Study Abroad” initiative has been twofold:\n\nIncrease u
 ndergraduate participation in education abroad\, with at least 50% of unde
 rgraduates having a substantive international experience by graduation.\n\
 nExpand and enhance the number and quality of student opportunities for me
 aningful international experiences linked to their curriculum.\n\nThe upco
 ming symposium builds on the first internationalization symposium in Febru
 ary 2014\, “What Constitutes a Meaningful International Experience?” w
 hich started a university-wide conversation aimed at bringing the multitud
 e of efforts in the international arena under the strategic umbrella of th
 e Global Cornell Initiative. One of the strongest takeaways of last year
 ’s symposium was the importance of connecting international experiences 
 and programs to the curriculum. Although we do have several excellent exam
 ples from our colleges\, many international experiences and programs are n
 ot or only partly integrated into the curriculum\, while many degree progr
 ams do not have any international dimension.\n\nThe symposium will include
  four sessions: \n\nSession 1: Internationalizing the Curriculum\nSession 
 2: Global Learning Outcomes and Assessment\nSession 3: Models and Strategi
 es for Integrating International Experiences\nSession 4: Institutional Opp
 ortunities and the Challenges of Curriculum Integration\n\nEach session wi
 ll feature case studies from Cornell's colleges\, student and faculty pane
 l discussions\, and presentations. We will welcome three external speakers
  (http://einaudi.cornell.edu/speakers/) from peer universities and experts
  in the field of international education to benefit from their experiences
  and lessons learned.\n\nPlease register here: https://www.surveymonkey.co
