Planning a Faculty-Led Program
The Office of Global Experiences values faculty and academic staff interest in developing and leading short-term faculty-led international programs. We look forward to assisting faculty and staff in what will be a richly rewarding opportunity, both for faculty and staff's own professional development and the academic and personal development of UW-Whitewater students.
Faculty and academic staff interested in leading a faculty-led program must submit a detailed proposal accompanied by their Chair's feedback and signature to the Office of Global Experiences for review by the following dates, approximately 15 months prior to the internatonal program start date.
- Fall and Winterim programs: October 15
- Spring and Summer programs: March 15
Late proposals will no longer be accepted. No exceptions!
A complete proposal consists of:
Please contact the Global Experience Coordinator, Dan Colleran, 262 472 5759 to set up an appointment to discuss your proposal idea.
You may also find it useful to read through the Faculty-Led Program Handbook and familiarize yourself with existing faculty-led program offerings when creating your proposal.
