International Education Advisory Committee

The International Education Advisory Committee (IEAC) is a campus team of both faculty and staff, which provides advice and counsel to University Administration on the following areas:

  • Mechanisms to internationalize the campus and achieve campus goals. This includes providing strategic direction to achieve comprehensive campus-wide internationalization
  • Processes that foster working with individual academic units, such as individual schools, colleges and departments, to enhance the level and scope of internationalization
  • The academic merit, overall value, and viability of agreements for international cooperation into which our campus may wish to enter
  • Implementation of sound study-abroad and exchange-program planning, review of proposals for new programs, monitoring the mix of commitments to maximize high-quality options and access across the institution, and periodically conducting evaluations of Binghamton University's international partnerships and study-abroad programs. In its evaluation role, the IEAC examines the goals established for each project and the outcomes achieved, and then make recommendations for continuation, modification, growth, reduction or elimination of the partnership or program
  • Working with different constituencies across campus to enhance internationalization. This includes student organizations, faculty and staff groups, volunteer organizations and academic units
