Strategic Initiative 4: Strengthen Internationalization Efforts
IUPUI will broaden and deepen internationalization, forge and expand effective international partnerships, and position our students to be global citizens.
Campus Internationalization Task Force
In coordination with the strategic planning process IUPUI, the campus will be participating in a two-year planning process with the American Council on Education’s (ACE) Internationalization Laboratory, 2012–2014.
The Internationalization Laboratory is an invitational learning community of the American Council on Education that assists participating colleges and universities to achieve comprehensive internationalization. The primary goals are for ACE to guide the processes of reviewing the array of international activities; articulating student learning goals for international learning; assessing progress towards those goals; and developing a strategic plan to broaden and deepen internationalization.
Members have been nominated to serve on the IUPUI ACE Leadership Team by their units. In coordination with the IUPUI ACE Executive Committee, the Leadership Team will have overall responsibility for coordinating the planning process, creating the plan document, and coordinating the implementation of the plan, as well as interfacing with the campus community in each of these activities by leading conversations, listening, and initiating other means of gathering input.
ACE will work with each institution to customize an engagement that best suits its needs. In IUPUI’s case, the Leadership Team will work with the IUPUI leadership, faculty, and staff to clarify a Vision for Internationalization for each school through 2015-2020, extending the international education work that IUPUI has engaged in over the past decade.
