International Education Week is a joint initiative between the US Department of State and The US Department of Education designed to celebrate internationalization and exchange worldwide. This annual week of programming includes a lineup of globally themed workshops, speakers, and events that invite the Tulane community to celebrate the benefits of international representation and exchange both on our campus and in New Orleans as a whole. Tulane students, faculty, and staff are all encouraged to participate in and recognize this important celebration of the vibrant global community that has been cultivated at Tulane. IEW will also feature the annual NTC Study Abroad Fair where students can meet with program providers and institutional representatives to learn more about opportunities to study abroad at Tulane partner institutions worldwide.
