The IIS organizes a wide rage of activities every year to advance the university’s mission in international education. Included amongst these for students are traditional semester and full-year study abroad programs; five faculty-led summer programs, and three short term study experiences. International Student Teaching placements are also available for education majors at five different sites.

LHU faculty can also take advantage of a number of different international opportunities. The most popular program is the IIS Short Term Faculty Travel Grant program. These provide faculty with airfare to visit one of LHU’s partner universities or to present a paper at an overseas conference. Opportunities also exist for faculty to complete either short-term or semester-long exchange experiences at one of LHU’s more than 30 partner universities around the world.

The IIS also represents the ‘home’ for many international students studying at LHU for either a semester or a degree period. At any one time there are more than 100 international students on our campus. The IIS works collaboratively with the International Student Association to provide interesting programming for the international students on campus and to the broader university community. The International Friendship Program sponsored by the IIS matches international students with faculty and staff. The program seeks to create mutually beneficial connections between our international students and the broader university community.

The backbone of LHU’s international program rests on the relationships that it maintains with 35 exchange partners in 21 different countries. Click on the name of the country below to learn more about all of our partner universities.
