IMPERATIVE III: Instill Global Perspectives into the Academic Life of the University |
|||||
| Advances in technology and critical world events require educational institutions in the 21st century to adopt global perspectives. To prepare its students for the global village, the Island University of 2015 will incorporate worldwide perspectives across subject areas and encourage multidisciplinary exploration of global issues. The University will host nationally and internationally known artists, performers and speakers, as well as provide the site for regional and national conferences, symposia, and festivals. An International Studies Task Force will design and secure funding to increase international student recruitment. International research collaborations, faculty and student exchange programs and a Study Abroad program will coexist, driven by partnerships with international universities. |
