For Faculty & Staff
Overview
Faculty-led education abroad experiences are programs in which the academic instruction on site is provided by USF faculty or host-country instructors teaching existing courses equivalent to those available at USF. Typically, they are short-term (from 1 to 12 weeks) and offered during the summer or winter/spring breaks. Faculty-led semester-long programs is an area of development, but is less common.
EAO encourages early, informal consultation by faculty and units for program planning and encourages coordinated programming among departments.
In order to programs are developed in time for recruitment each year, proposals are due the academic year before. All proposals are submitted by colleges on behalf of their departments. Some colleges have earlier deadlines in order to carefully review proposed programming and evaluate the impact on their overall internationalization plan. Faculty members are encouraged to speak to their chairs and their college dean's designated representative for global affairs to insure they meet any internal deadlines. The Education Abroad Office welcomes early consultation and are happy to assist interested faculty members and departments think through their intended programming prior to initiating the proposal process.
