The Important Role Faculty & Advisors Play
As faculty or an advisor, you play a key role in guiding and encouraging students to participate in Learning Abroad. Here's how you can help:
- Advise students. Help students align Learning Abroad with their goals and into their degree plans.
- Lead a program. Design a Learning Abroad program in which students can participate in.
- Advocate Learning Abroad. Work to remove barriers and increase resources for Learning Abroad opportunities.
Faculty and advisors have support through direct partnerships with Learning Abroad staff, workshops, online resources, and networking opportunities. Learning Abroad collaborates with departments, colleges, student service centers, and other offices across the U to deliver seamless experiences for students, as well as for the faculty and advisors that lead and support them.
